Show HN: Lost $500 because I couldn't find a receipt – built SlipCrate

Hi HN,

Last year, my washing machine broke. It was still under warranty, but I couldn't find the receipt anywhere. Ended up paying ~$500 for a repair that should've been free.

That stung — so I built SlipCrate to avoid it happening again.

Here's what it does:

- You upload receipts (photo or PDF). - It extracts purchase + warranty details automatically. - Everything is stored in one place. - It reminds you before warranties expire. - Works as a web app (installable on phone as a PWA).

I've kept it simple — not another "all-in-one finance app," just a focused tool to stop losing money because of misplaced receipts or forgotten warranty dates.

Try it here: https://slipcrate.com (It's free to try, early testers get a discount code for premium.)

Thanks for reading — and if this saves even one person from paying out of pocket like I did, it'll be worth it.
