Hi everyone, I have just started my course and I am starting to buy bits and pieces e.g laminator, resources etc. Would I be able to keep the receipts and claim them back once I start earning? I'm really confused about the book keeping side of things. Thanks in advance! :)

Yes, anything you buy for the business, just keep the receipts!

Good luck with your course :D

Just wanted to add that you do not need receipts for purchases under £10 - however i do tend to keep & get receipts just in case.

Once your minding & say yo buy ice creams from an ice cream van - then they wouldn't give a receipt, but you can still claim as long as its under £10.

:)

what i tend to do is write my own receipt for items under £10.00 as when i go to do my account if i have not got the receipt then i tend to have forgotten about it

and those items under £10.00 soon add up

mind you i only do my accounts every two or three months
