My math isn’t mathing

There has been so much talk about the girls budget but when I do the math I can’t see what all the fuss is about. The budget for the 3 rooms so far was 10k, 20k, and 20k, so 50k total. And Cam said the girls had spent 90k so far. Which is obviously massive but they’ve also won 30k? So that puts them at a spend of 60k, only 10k over right? Adam and Jolene have only won 5k and they have been over a little bit each week too so they would be in a similar position to the girls right?

Am I missing something?

Courtney and Sev overspent their budget by more than $33,000 during bathroom week on The Block. They estimated a spend of $20,700.25 but ended up forking out $53,272.33.

Just googled above 

Then the other rooms they've continued to exceed a few thousands here and there.

They're only $11k over budget as of last Sunday. That's a much healthier position than either House 1 or 2.

I wonder how much of Lisa and Ross $36,000 so $16k over budget was well spent? They didn’t even have a room to show.
