Abstract: A receipt management system, method and article of manufacture. The article of manufacture can include a storage medium configured to store receipt data from multiple disparate vendors, communications logic for establishing a communicative link between the system and receipt data processing logic disposed within individual ones of the multiple disparate vendors, and a receipt management processor programmed to moderate access to the storage medium. Importantly, the storage medium can be a portable mass storage device. Notably, each of the storage medium, communications logic and receipt management processor can be disposed in a pervasive device, or in a personal article.
