Chris,
You create a multisplit transaction with the item names in the description/memo
field and select the same expense account in the transfer account. GnuCash will
automatically put the balance of the transaction in the next open credit field.
Select the amount and override it for the correct amount then tab to the next
line
Descr/Memo Transfer account Debit Credit
Asset:bank account 3.49
Choc Bar Expense:food 0.99
Pear Drops Expense Food 1.50
Chewing gum Expense food 1.00
