I am stuck on task 8 on the Project Thread Shed , because I have the same code as in the walkthrough video but my output is totally different, it prints out each item 4 times in a row. I really do not know what to change or what I did differently.

Here is my code:

 daily_sales_replaced = daily_sales.replace(";,;", "+")
daily_transactions = daily_sales_replaced.split(",")
#print(daily_transactions)

daily_transactions_split = []

for transaction in daily_transactions:
  daily_transactions_split.append(transaction.split("+"))

#print(daily_transactions_split)

transactions_clean = []
for transaction in daily_transactions_split:
  transaction_clean = []
  for data_point in transaction:
    transaction_clean.append(data_point.replace("\n", "").strip(" "))
    transactions_clean.append(transaction_clean)

print(transactions_clean)

And the output is like this:
‘09/15/17’], [‘Lewis Glover’, ‘$13.66’, ‘green&white’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Gail Phelps’, ‘$30.52’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Gail Phelps’, ‘$30.52’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Gail Phelps’, ‘$30.52’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Gail Phelps’, ‘$30.52’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Myrtle Morris’, ‘$22.66’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Myrtle Morris’, ‘$22.66’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Myrtle Morris’, ‘$22.66’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’], [‘Myrtle Morris’, ‘$22.66’, ‘green&white&blue’, ‘09/15/17’]]

double check your indentation on the second for loop.

That said, you might find some insights from these previous posts on the same question as well.
