Do you want a receipt

[Bunnybenty]

I moved to England not that long ago.

In other countries that I lived in, they just gave me a receipt in the shops, everytime that I bought something. The receipt was always handed to me with the purchase.

Why in the UK do they not just give the receipt to you,

instead they always ASK you if you want a receipt.

What annoys me about it, is that it slows the shopping experience down so much.

Many times I have been called back to the till, to be asked if i want a receipt.

Example: I was in a small shop this morning. I only had a certain amount of time, as i was on the way to work. I was walking out of the door, when the woman at the till shouted at me "Wait. Come back! come back!".

I thought maybe my payment hadn't gone through, so I walked all the way back to her.

She said "Do you want a receipt?".

It drives me mad!

How do you see their other threads?

I wonder this too

You spelled people wrong.

😂 Need the laugh reaction. ‘I’ should be written as a capital too, and the punctuation is dodgy.

So... Uh... What's the deal with receipts, amiright? 🫣

Yes it is to save paper and rubbish as so many just toss it. And it doesn’t matter what other countries do. I’ve rarely (in fact don’t think I’ve ever) been called back though. If I walk away without it and want one that’s on me.
