Does anyone use a spreadsheet to monitor/keep track of usage?

I don't need cost as I have repayment but was just wondering how to set out the whole - date | unit | unit difference | number of days etc

    Dont need a spreadsheet anymore surely, just input your readings online with your energy provider and they make all sorts of pretty graphs for you and show you a bill to the exact penny :)

    Do nPower do that for prepayment meters? I don't care about showing cost.
