      I'm doing an audit of sorts... we just bought new appliances, and some new furniture.  I need to photograph the items, copy the serial numbers, scan the receipts etc. in case I ever have to file a claim with my homeowner's insurance policy.

Better me than the IRS. Everyone could find more profit from the slack of the day to day spending. Taking all the deductions allowed means not waiting until crunching numbers sitting on the other side of the desk your bean counter holds down. Visit with him or her and glean the CPA knowledge to guide the business dance steps in other seasons, not just the tax return one.
