Mhh ... I move all confirmation emails from online purchases in a separate folder on my IMAP. So, I always have a list of all purchases I've made, ordered by date. I don't buy that much stuff online so keeping track using that list usually works fine. Except for xmas, I rarely have more than, say, 2 or 3 packages coming my way at the same time.

I simply keep checking that folder once in a while to see if I received what I ordered.

So a tripit like product for shipping wouldn't interest you?

Mhh, not really but that's just me. The email folder works great for me. As I said: The effort of keeping track of my online purchases is not huge. So, another tool is really not necessary. Again, that's just me. ;-)
