Too much paper work
We suffered from the same issues until I decided enough was enough. I pulled out a regular sized envelope and each month we take receipts and put them into the envelope. This is a daily task and everyone in our household is on board. But before the receipts go in the envelope it goes into Microsoft money so we can track our expenses.
We are all about the budget. Yes the “B” word. Get over it, it’s really not that bad.
Each month we get a new envelope and start over again. It now it’s a house hold habit and we are much more in control of our paper work and finances.
If you asked me to find a receipt to return something - I would be looking for hours. My paper files are an absolute mess for this year. I have about three places around the house where there are piles of papers that are just waiting for their homes.
