Which kind of shopper are you?Follow

Receipt gets stuffed into the receipt+random crap part of my wallet, which gets cleaned out about once a month. Just in case I need them again, I guess, even though I almost never do.

Mine get shoved into the front pocket of my purse until I can no longer fit my keys into it. By then the print has faded on some and they all have those fuzzy black creases on em.

I work in a supermarket to make a little extra cash on the side, and it pisses me off when people don't take their receipt. Not as much because you need to remember what the hell you bought, but because you can't return the groceries without a receipt, not even if something's wrong with them.

And if - god forbid - something is wrong with your groceries and you didn't take the receipt, I just know you'll be back and you'll bring a whole lot of drama with you.

"What do you mean, I don't have a receipt? The stuff is bad, I can't eat it! Just give me my money back! What do you mean, you can't just do that? I was down here last week, don't you remember? So what if you've had a thousand customers since then, you must remember me! Jesus, you're too fucking dumb to be here, I want to see your supervisor. You ARE the supervisor? Well, give me my money back then! Look at it, I can't eat that! Yes, I bought it here, what do you think? NO, I DON'T HAVE THE FUCKING RECEIPT, I'M A GUY, OKAY?!!"

You won't believe the amount of shit you have to go through as a cashier or whatever the hell you call us. About a month ago, a man threw a bottle of shampoo in my sister's face because she didn't give him an extra discount on some toilet paper (she could've gotten fired if she had). The guy had a suit and a briefcase, probably worked at a bank somewhere, and he just lost it over a $0.20 discount on toilet paper.

don't bother me, just put it in the bag. Only time I will hold onto a receipt is when I buy something expensive or technical.

Jonwin may object to my vote, but then I rarely do the shopping anymore, so I have no idea of what he does with the receipts.

When I do shop, the receipts go into my wallet and toss months later, when I can't close it easily.

edit to place a few missing letters where they belong.

Pot, kettle.
Kettle, pot.

good, you too are now friends.

You miss the purpose of the "I'm a guy bit" asshat. You are not a guy if something went bad and you went all nancy and brought it back. Fucking toss it in the trash and move on. I got better things to do with my life then waste it trying to get a $1.99 back on a bad can of peaches.

Actually that has little to do with being a guy as I do that too. I've even bought meat with it labeled as beef and got it home to find out it was pork. I called to let the store know in case others were mispackaged and someone could be allergic to the food, but I didnt return it. I cant ever see myself going back to complain about being overcharged for ten cents.

This one guy wanted a refund because the wine he had bought had gone sour or whatever happens to wine when it goes bad. I understand him, because he paid about $100 for it, but he didn't have the receipt. Is he a nancy for wanting a $100 refund? I don't think so, I mean, I'd want the refund as well. But he should've kept the receipt.

We were able to track down the cashier he had paid and we managed to do the refund without his receipt, but it took some phone calls and a lot of time. Had he brought the receipt it would've been stamp, stamp, signature, -$100, "Have a nice day, sir, and sorry for the inconvenience".

Receipts are the only proof you have of ever being in that particular store. It's not like we hand out receipts because we need to blow money on something nor is it because we expect you to change your mind about what you bought. And it sure as hell isn't because we want to challenge your masculinity. It's to make sure you can prove to us when and where you bought the item you want refunded.

And the least you can do when people want to help you out, because that's all we want to do when we ask if you want the receipt with that, is answer yes or no. Just ignoring the question won't make the women around you drool over your alpha male attitude, it'll just **** the cashier off. And he's the guy you're handing your money over to.

"No thanks" works too.

If I purchased a $100 bottle of wine and it was bad and I had no reciept I would say "sucks for me" next time save it for such a large purchase dumbass and go on my way. I don't go through life believing the world owes me a refund because **** happened.

If it's Walmart, they will. Last year I bought a "new" air humidifier from Walmart, that when I opened it the filter report light was already on, it came with no manual, it was all scratched up. and two of the lines on the LED panel were busted. New, my ***.

Most definitely in the bag. If it gets put in my pocket, I will end up just losing it. Then I will realize the shirt I bought won't fit, and I will be hooped. Oh yeah, in the bag.

I order clothes on-line. /scandal. K+C. /kiss
