			# Passwords will generally always have to do with the content of the receipt, except some receipts. This way, you will get a feel for what you're searching for.
			# If you feel like you're on the wrong track, you probably are. Don't overthink everything too much.
			# Remember to note anything weird in receipts. Anything weird you see could be a password, puzzle, or a hidden clue for the future!
