How to preserve receipts and prevent fading

A tip for you guys:

Do you save receipts? Well, today when I needed my Chi flat iron receipt so that I could file a complaint with the BBB, I realized most of my receipt was beginning to fade! This can be disasterous. So I was able to see enough to get my information to the BBB, but I thought what will I do if I need this again and it's already faded almost completely? This happens with receipts. I even found one receipt that was important and had faded completely! So I came up with a quick plan for preventing your receipts from fading .. . . 

Tape them son of a bitches! Yes. I am serious. It works. I've got a whole receipt book filled with taped receipts now. All you need to do is place a strip of tape over the imporant parts of you receipts, and if you need them in the future (to return something, for future references, etc.) you can be sure they won't be faded! This was so genius I think I need a reward. Kidding. NO, I'm really not kidding. I actually think this, but don't hold that against me. I don't have genuis ideas very often.

Anyways, what I done was use my handy ass Scotch Pop Up tape dispenser and the small strips were the perfect size to cover the important parts of my receipts -- the date, the products purchases and total. 

So, get out your tape and receipt book! This will come in handy. One day. I know it will.
