RECEIPTS - Samuel
When did you begin collecting receipts?
I’ve always been a bit of an anti-consumerist, so I like to
document my spending, and how much I am spending on certain items. I always
make sure I have my use out of items I buy, no matter how much they cost!
So your collecting is more productive, rather than enjoyable?
Collecting receipts could never really be enjoyable; in fact, it’s
probably more unenjoyable. I’ve been collecting receipts for so long it’s
become engrained into my OCD tendencies. I feel if I stop collecting receipts,
something bad will happen.
So,
approximately how many receipts are you hoarding?
Hoarding is the
correct word here, as I can imagine it’s tipping somewhere around half a
million last time I checked. I catalogue them each year, and categorise them
into months and genres, hence why you could only photograph the box of receipts
from 2015. Every New Years Day I come back from celebrating and begin
cataloguing my receipts straight away.
How long does
this take?
About 12-13
hours, depending if I take a break to watch television or eat.
