Blooming receipts

[kelse]

I have been asked to give in a couple of weeks worth of petrol receipts as our petrol bill is quite high. I did a weeks worth then today I went shopping and filled up the car - and forgot to ask for a receipt. I'm sooo annoyed with myself

Do you think it will be ok to give the receipts over in a few weeks when I've re done it or should I give last weeks in and then next weeks?

If you are filling up weekly then just send them in in 2 weeks time,that should show a rough pattern of whats being spent.

[kelse]

I fill up on a sunday when i go shopping then i top up in the week too.

[plasticdaft]

I wouldnt panic too much about it,as long as you get the receipts in future!!(its hard getting into the habit of asking for them)

[ivas4us]

how many miles do you do. I use mine for work and only fill up once a month.

[kelse]

Loads, the school is 7 miles away and shopping is a 40 odd mile round trip. Thats without everything else. (if I go to tesco extra its a 60 mile round trip)

[ivas4us]

Is your IP questioning the amount of miles you do or the amount of fuel you use to do the miles you do.

[LoneRanger]

I do 300 miles a week for work and was never questioned about it

[kelse]

I dont know to be honest, I was just asked to give receipts.

When my proposals were being drafted my petrol allowance was increased as Melanie thought what I had put down was insufficient - just as well she did with the hike in petrol costs out in the wilds.

[ivas4us]

we have £120 a month allowance for 2 cars.

kelse has your disposable income changed significantly due to your petrol costs.

Why don't you just note down what you actually spent this week - I am sure one missing receipt will not spoil matters.
