The good news is that now that the IRS accepts digital receipt images, those that would rather scan/computerize/digitize their receipts can do so, rather than trying to constantly keep paper receipts flied.

You enter it once and that's it. I'm with you.....not using technology in this day and age is giving your business a short shelf life. I totally agree….that’s why I recommend QuickBooks.

The filing system you mentioned is how I used to do it until I realized it was too complicated and made me procrastinate about filing. A person sitting there adding receipts could spend that time marketing and networking! @Bernadette: Bernadette, I worry about people who are in business in 2008 and uncomfortable with technology…sure hope that’s not the case throughout their business.

However, I realize that some clients are not comfortable with learning a new software program so for those clients I teach them a manual system. In a manual system, I recommend filing the receipts by category (i.e. office supplies, travel, telephone, income, etc). This way you can simply pull the file and add all the receipts to get totals for your tax return. Of course being a tax accountant and QuickBooks trainer…I recommend QuickBooks to my clients.
