Cash Register Receipt Wallet

Step 2Fold the receipts into 1/4 wide strips

Fold the receipts into 1/4 wide strips
Fold them in half. I like print side out.
Fold each edge into the middle.
Crease.
Now you have a 1/4 wide strip.
Crease and Repeat

Wallet is 10 strips long and 4 strips tall with 2 strips needed for edge piping. (16 qty 8" to 13" strips)
Optional Card pocket is 5 strips long by 3 strips tall (8 qty 5" to 6" strips)

If you are going to fold lots of them (like for making a receipt shopping bag) you may want to make a folder aligner out of a manila folder. You just position one edge of the reciept into the bottom crease of the manila folder and then bend the receipt to align the second edge down into the folder's crease then crease the receipt. You have used the folder (noun) as a folder (verb).
This makes very neat folded strips with parallel edges.
