Comments on: We’ve Reached Critical Mass http://www.moundalexis.com/tm/2007/12/22/weve-reached-critical-mass/ Rants and musings, without care for substance.

I'm still a bigger fan of Fuddruckers. yellowjkt: I tried using Quicken or Kiplinger's (way back) and found it to be more of pain that it was worth. Lurker: That is an interesting point, I rarely look to see if the number on the signed CC slip matches my card number. I see the amount that matches the itemized receipt and just figure it's correct.

I've gotten the wrong CC receipt back a few times only to notice the incorrect name. Could be because of incompetent staff.

Even Firefox's spellcheck hates it. It also hates the word "spellcheck" too. FTW. Is it just me or does anyone else cringe at the name “Cheeburger Cheeburger”? Even Firefox’s spellcheck hates it.

The Federal Trade Commission requires that businesses cannot print or electronically send receipts with more than the last 5 digits of a credit card number or any information regarding the expiration date. Every business that acts against it makes itself chargeable! You could act against that... At Shoeboxed we try to give you a tool at hand which makes your personal finance organization as safe and easy as possible. You can upload your receipts and store them digitally on our platform. We also offer a service where we scan in your receipts, the netflix-way, which is a lot cheaper then letting your accountant do it (and you can export and send it to him afterwards). Additionally to that we give you tools to analyze your spendings. And it's fun! (sounds strange, but yeah..) If you have any questions, comments or concerns, feel free to shoot me an email: julian@teamshoeboxed.com merry christmas! julian Hey Alex,
