Not Quite Paperless Yet

It seems to me that the more I try to go paperless, the more paper there is to sort out and the incoming stream never slows down.

I have done at least this much...

Kept a spreadsheet record of my gas expenses. Then toss the receipt.
Paid my everyday items with either my debit card or charge card. That way I can
Monitor my expenses on Mint.
Mint is a wonderful online tool that tracks your accounts and debts. You can now view your investment progress and soon will feature mortgage and student loan tracking. It is free to subscribe and use and Clark Howard raves about it on his radio show. For the LAZY person, it is the perfect tracking tool for me.
However, I will continue to strive with my receipt organizing. I will keep you posted.
