With the current state of the economy, many men (and women) have been working extra long hours at their respective jobs in order to make ends meet [...]

Amazon bucked the overall trend of sliding retail sales this year with their best holiday shopping season ever, with its busiest day seeing a 17% increase from last year.
For December 15, Amazon’s largest day for orders, the retailer sold 6.3 million items, up from 5.4% on the same day last year.

We all know about Black Friday: the day after Thanksgiving that traditionally marks the beginning of the holiday shopping season in America. Tons of deals are unveiled in brick-and-mortar stores throughout the country to lure people inside. Doorbusters and generally reduced prices help to kick the holiday shopping season off.
Cyber Monday, then, is the Monday [...]

I’ve been using Receipt Mail-In since we first started offering it. I have over a thousand receipts in my own account now, as I send in about 50 every month to be scanned and uploaded.
With all these paper receipts in my account, it’s certainly cool to watch my statistics grow and evolve over time. For [...]

Deals, deals, deals. As of yesterday, they are officially all over the place. And they’ll be everywhere throughout the holiday season shopping rush.

When Taylor was convincing me to join the Shoeboxed team back in February, he talked about changing online shopping, about improving online security, and about making people think differently about how they can use the Internet.
Bold statements, for sure, especially when made in a college dorm room. But Taylor has had a really detailed plan [...]

I’ll be honest, I’m not the most enthusiastic shopper. I don’t like going to the mall. Once I find a shirt I like, I will purchase one in each color and two in black to extend the time in between shopping trips.
But if there’s one thing I always fall for, it’s customized products. An iPod [...]

So what are you supposed to do if you love Shoeboxed–the team, the spirit, the innovation, the product–but you just don’t feel like you shop online enough to benefit from signing up?
