I was hoping for some sort of page on Amazon, but I guess it isn't exactly in their interest to let you (or your spouse) know such things. You might even demand a quantity discount! @HR — thanks.

I use iBank for this (MacOS only thought, http://www.iggsoftware.com/ibank/), pretty useful for keeping track of the expenses. With it you can check the expenses for Amazon for a given period, account or over all easily: http://www.hansr.net/myndir/ZZ14B72E90.jpg @bergsten: I don’t think there is any quick way of doing it through Amazon themselves but if you have any kind of personal finance software you should be able to quickly grab the OFX files for your transactions from your bank’s online banking section and load them in.
