Maybe you found MyThings through your own devices and you’ve been wondering about the whole receipt-saving thing we talk about all over the site. How do you do it, you ask? Excellent question! And we have three fantastic answers.
Up until now, you had two options to save your receipt: you could either click on Save this Receipt when you made a purchase from one of our partner sites, or you could use the MyThings toolbar.
Now you have a third option for saving your receipt, and it’s so simple you could do it in your sleep. Let’s say you make a purchase at Amazon.com. You’ll then receive an email from Amazon confirming your purchase, like this:

Click on the forward button, and send it over to us at receipts@mythings.com. (Make sure to use the email account we have on file for you.) We’ll create an item page for every individual product you purchased, and create a receipt for each one.
Next time you log on to MyThings, you can click on My Receipts at the top of the page to see all the receipts you’ve saved. When you open the Things I Own page, you’ll see another My Receipts tab under your profile picture, and you’ll also see all your newly purchased items added to your list.

Go ahead and look through your inbox now—or even your deleted messages. You probably have something in there you bought recently. Maybe an air conditioner? A new iPod? A puzzle made from pictures of you and your cat? (Really—no judgment here.) Send them on over.
We’re excited to make getting organised fun and easy, and we hope you will be, too!
