## Issue: Data Loss Due to Formula Reload

### Problem

Google Sheets automatically reloads all formulas every few hours. This includes formulas and can lead to unexpected costs and result changes.

**Important Note:** Sorting, filtering, moving columns or rows will reload ALL formulas and generate unexpected costs.

### Solution (Workaround)

Replace formulas with values before moving things around or when you finish your work.

### Steps to Replace Formulas with Values

1. Select the cells containing the formulas you want to replace.
2. Copy the selected cells (Ctrl+C or Cmd+C).
3. Right-click on the selected cells and choose "Paste special" > "Values only".

By following these steps, you can prevent Google Sheets from reloading formulas and incurring unexpected costs.
