I will scan a pile of skinny receipts at once, arranging them for best fit on the flatbed, and holding them down with small flat metal weights, aka keys. Keeping up to date with scanning is the best way to deal with the pain of the flatbed scanner. At work we have the sort of scanner that scans both sides etc, but varying paper sizes and torn edges create problems - neither way is optimum.
