Totally agree rebates are simpler, especially for quick wins like appliances or insulation. But deductions can really shine if you're tackling bigger renos—think solar panels or geothermal systems. Just keep receipts organized from day one...trust me, saves headaches later.
Haha, receipts organized from day one...is that even humanly possible? But seriously, good tip—my shoebox method has caused more panic than I'd like to admit. Maybe it's finally time to adult properly and invest in a folder?
"Maybe it's finally time to adult properly and invest in a folder?"
Haha, trust me, the folder upgrade is worth it. I've seen clients scramble last-minute for receipts when applying for green rebates or deductions. Keeping organized from the start saves headaches later...and your accountant will thank you too.

Haha, folders are great—but have you thought about going digital? I used to stuff everything into random drawers until I switched to a cloud-based system. Now, when rebate season rolls around, I'm not frantically digging through piles of paper...and bonus points for saving some trees along the way. Either way, getting organized is a huge win—your future self will definitely appreciate it.

Digital is handy, sure, but I gotta say...sometimes old-school paper folders have their perks. When we renovated our historic place, I went fully digital at first, thinking it'd streamline everything. Then came the day my laptop crashed right before submitting rebate paperwork—talk about a panic moment. Thankfully, I'd printed backups stashed in an actual folder (lesson learned!). So now I keep both; digital for convenience, physical for peace of mind. Guess it's all about balance and knowing your own comfort zone.
