Keeping Up With Expenses - NeatReceipts

Monday January 12, 2009
The end of a business trip is always my favorite part - until I look at the pile of unorganized receipts I have accumulated and realize that sorting through them is the only way to get reimbursed. If you are like me and need help organizing your business expenses (I'd like back the thousands of dollars I know I've lost over the years due to my disorganization), the NeatReceipts scanner may be a step in the right direction. This relatively mobile device can eliminate piles of crumpled receipts from your briefcase for good, keeping you organized and, perhaps, even motivating you to get your expenses in on time (New Year's resolution #10 for me!).
