What is the a good way to keep your receipts organized, i have a lot !?
Question:
Answers:
Write them out on a 3x5 (or 4x6) index card and find a photo album, the kind that has the plastic sleeves for picture (not a scrapbook)
This way cards are protected, without having to laminate and usually these albums open flat for easy reference, If you get an album with three or four slots per page you can put whole meals on one page.
This is a great gift to give someone as well, like for a person getting married in the office or having baby, have everyone write down a recipe or two and put them in a nice photo album, leaving blank sleeves for additions
Staple the receipt to a regular size piece of paper then put them in a file folder by subject/alphabetized.
try a huge stamp album, or a clear file holder...i dunno
try one of those accordian type file folders
Make an alphabetical index, labeled by type of expense, and file your receipt's accordingly.
I put each receipt into a regular envelope (6.5" x 3.5" or 16.5cm x 9 cm) and write the name of the product, the model and serial numbers, the name of the store where I bought it, and the date of purchase on the outside. Then I just toss the envelope into a drawer dedicated to receipts only. I keep the user manuals in another dedicated drawer.
If you already have a whole lot of recipes stacked up, I don't know how much help this may be... I don't use recipes a whole lot- I'm sort of a "wing it" cook, but i keep a "virtual recipe" box on allrecipes.com. The site has LOADS of recipes that people send in and rate & review them and you can save & organize the recipes in a "box" that they give you. Definitely very handy! :)
keep them in a folder!
