Since I bought my XJ in 07, it's a 96, I have tried to save every receipt for everything from oil changes to replacement parts,(not fuel). I keep them all in the glove box in a Jeep labeled pouch that I got out of a rental Patriot. How about you?

 

I don't think there is any glove box big enough to hold all my receipts. I have several folders full in a file cabinet.
BTW: To avoid suicidal tendencies, NEVER total them all up. lol

 

Every dime spent on her.

 

I used to not keep anything. i drove throw away vehicles and I really didnt care. then I started investing in my old truck bringing it back to life and I bought a decent vehicle or two and in the last several years my attitude towards this stuff has changed.

I keep a folder for each of my three vehicles. Parts receipts for everything I buy for that vehicle(other than oil/filters/fluids). other things I keep in the folders are part numbers for things like belts if I had a hard time finding the correct one(like on old Small Block Chevys with miss matched pulleys). or hoses that were hard to find ect.

Inside each vehicle is a small notebook with everything wrote down. date purchased, mileage when bought and every oil change with date and mileage. Also where I keep track of every bit of maintenance. tires, repairs, parts, whatever I do to that vehicle. and the dates and mileage for everything. plus notes like part numbers or whatever else I think may help me in the future.

on a side note, the folders and notebooks can be a trip down memory lane

 

I saved all my receipts over the 17 years i've owned my XJ.
I could use them for fuel to roast a chicken on the grill.

 

When I first got my Jeep a couple of years ago I was keeping them. I even made notes in a service log about each job I did on the Jeep. But then the pile got so big, and I'm always doing stuff. I realized I'm only doing it for me, I'm not interested in selling it, and nobody really cares, so I stopped.

 

I'm lazy, there, I said it. I have attempted to maintain a log book tracking work done. I keep forgetting to update it though. I can't see a good reason to keep all of the receipts though. I keep them for warranty items, most of the time.

 

Also Mr. Lazy here. I keep a log book of maintenance items so I know when work was done, but only keep receipts for items where a warranty is involved.
