Financial Tip of the Day

When you write a check, use the memo line at the bottom of the check to write as good of a description as you can as to what the check is for. Then if it is important that you save that receipt for later purposes staple the receipt to the check before putting them away. If you have to go back after several years and retrieve checks pertaining to something specific you will have the check and the receipt together. Another thing about receipts is that many of them fade over time and are illegible so making a copy of receipts is a good idea. Blessings, Kat
