Support attaching image of receipts

[stephcipresse]

There are several cool receipt scanning and storing solutions out there (ex: neat receipts, shoeboxed, evernote) as well as the ability to just scan in a receipt or statement or bill and save as a pdf or jpg or png file.

It would be great to be able to attach those files to the mint expense items -- or the link to one of those services. Then I wouldn't have to keep the paper versions for tax records. I could just find the entry in Mint, scan in the receipt, link the digital image to the expense entry, give it the right tags,and be all ready for the end of quarter tax estimating discussion.

we save doctors receipts, business related receipts, childcare related receipts...etc.

Other financial programs like Outright, FreshBooks and Quickbooks already have that linkage:

Electronically filing & attaching receipt images to the transaction entry would be an ideal world for me (an accountant).

this would be VERY valuable! a way to snap the photo of a receipt, and have it automatically attach to a particular entry inside of mint!!!

snapped straight from your mobile device :)

I want the data! When mint.com fetches my bank transactions, it would be great if it were able to fetch the digital receipts too

The digital receipt should be data (not an image). It would contain detailed information about what I purchased.

At the end of the year, I do my taxes and it would be cool if mint.com could search my receipts and find stuff for me.

How much did I spend on lettuce this year?

I fully agree either letting me attach or getting it from my financial institution would be excellent addition.
