> I like to track each separately. Which means I then need to fetch and analyze the receipts. That is a reality. To make my life easier, when I check out at a store, I put all my grocery items first on the belt. Then everything else. Usually "everything else" is only a few items. So I categorize those additional items, and then specify "Groceries" for the rest. Often I buy only groceries, and I throw those receipts away. When I'm in a ledger/beancount session, if I don't have a receipt, that means it was just Groceries. This method alone really reduced my time dealing with receipts.
