I'm wondering the experiences of any fellow CP'ers who have done the same, specifically when it comes to store returns. Am I going to get the run around if I bring a scanned copy of a receipt as opposed to the original?

-Is there any software like neat receipts (or neat receipts itself), that I can buy without having to buy their scanner?

Any other advise from seasoned digital veterans?
Yes, in a few years time what ever you are storing this on will be outdated and you will have to keep moving stuff around or may well lose it completely, try getting info off a floppy these days, in the end paper is still the best way to keep things you absoloutly need.
