Anyone Keeping Receipts

Anyone keeping receipts, How do you record them in a ledger, is it Daily,Weekly, Monthly. do you still keep receipts if paid by card or will bank statements do ? What can't I claim for or is everything fair game. I have been keeping receipts for nearly a year and I keep records of every receipt individually or should I categorize them. Keeping track of every penny I spend, Don't know if some of them will be taken into account. This will drag on for a few more years. Can't afford to buy her out of the house, So waiting till daughter is finished her leaving cert, which is in 5 years time and then sell the house and then divorced. I pay everything for me and the kids, mortgage, schooling, food, ect. Don't get a bean from her.

You can do google sheets on a pc or laptop, put a number on the receipt to correspondent with goole sheets save them to Google drive then Buy packets of envelopes and keep receipts for each month in 1 envelope and seal it, Mark it with month and year and keep them safe.

In my case, I had boxes of receipts to prove that I paid the mortgage, childcare, utilities etc etc but at the end of the day, it just came down to the legal eagles/parasites doing their horse trading back and forth outside the courtroom and a deal was struck with no need for a look see at all those receipts. All that time cataloguing receipts etc was a pure waste of my life but then again, your case may be different.
