I have box receipts that are from before the pandemic and they are accepted. I buy about 12 at a time and because i usually ship to further away so most of the time the postage is already at the max reimbursement. For the 12 boxes and also 12 poly mailing bags I copy a photo of my receipt along the left edge of a sheet of paper then I write the numbers 1-12 on the right side for the boxes and label it on top something like $.72 per box + .07 tax =.79 per box. If i have different sizes i make a list for each size/price. Then as i use them i write the date and job number next to box 1, then 2 and so on. I make a similar list on the sheet of paper for the poly envelopes i purchased. So far with this they have never challenged me but if they did i would ask them to check to see if they have any other box reimbursements they have given me than the ones listed on my receipt.

I don't jump through the receipt hoops anymore. I used to, until one of the editors decided that because my receipt was a year old it couldn't possibly be the actual receipt for the boxes that I was shipping. Because I bought a pack of 50 and every box makes at least five trips, so the receipt is old, in fact it's over 2 years old now, but the editor wouldn't accept that it's the actual receipt because there's no way a brand new box could be 2 years old. So now when I have to replace a box, I eat the $0.72 or $0.37 cents that the box cost me. I get tired of the rules for the receipts changing randomly depending on who's editing anyway, so I just do what I need to do.
