I’ve enjoyed your holiday organizer. It helps me keep track of everyone’s gifts (both dollar amount and quantitiy), I’m neurotic in that they MUST be equal. I usually drive myself crazy trying to memorize this information. I’d like to find a way to attach an envelope for receipts. I might put a whole punch in it so that it will fit in the prongs. Thank you!

Tammy – I’m so glad you like it! I thought about adding a receipt pocket, too. Maybe I can add that in next year’s version. Thanks so much for the feedback!
