Holiday Giveaway #18 — Neat Receipts



Another great prize coming right up. Get ready to get organized. I'm not thinking about it, I hope you're not thinking about it. But tax season is right around the corner. Here's a little tool to help you get your stuff in order. Giveaway #18 is a Neat Receipts — which retails for $230!



This handy little tool is likely to revolutionize your paperwork and finances. Use it to scan receipts, business cards, documents, expense reports, etc. etc. directly into a database on your computer. Very, very cool. And it won't take up an obnoxious amount of space on your desk.

I love this review from David Pogue at the New York Times: "There are two deeply satisfying phases to this machine. One is watching it munch down your receipts and tally their totals on the screen. The other is throwing the receipts away afterward."



No more little bits of paper to get lost or clutter up your life? I love it! You can put it to especially good use this coming month. Because I'm guessing you'll be doing a little bit of shopping. Neat Receipts will have you in good working order as you search for documentation for things like product rebates and returns of faulty toys.

Neat Receipts has produced a practical tool that will help you as you design a more orderly life for your family.
Thank you Neat Receipts!
