More serious response: I use Money to handle records on ALL expenses. It connects to my bank and to all my credit card accounts and downloads the info. Once a particular type of transaction is identified to a category and sub-category, similar transactions are automatically identified. For a trip I set up a new category for that trip and then all transactions (or at least all possible) are either on a credit card, debit card, or gas credit card. When all the charges have cleared and been down loaded there will be a few minutes of making sure each transaction is in the right category such as "2003 Grand Canyon Trip, sub: Gasoline". I can then generate a report that gives me a breakdown on gasoline, camping fees, lodging fees, food (eating out or groceries), etc.
