      Similar but I scan mine for reimbursement as the majority of times I am buying stuff while outside the house it is a business expense. This statement makes me realize I need to leave the house more often for non work purposes.

    I was just at Hollywood market today and the cashier asked me if I wanted a receipt. For some reason I said No but he printed it out and stuck it in the bag. I told him thank you and left. Next time I will let them make the decision.

    I find this very annoying for groceries. My answer would always be no. But they installed this stupid system where your shopping cart wheels will randomly lock up as you’re walking out the door and the security person has to come unlock them, and it’s a pain if you don’t have a receipt.

    So now I always press yes just in case I lose cart roulette…

    In grocery stores I usually say no because I’m not gonna return my carrots and I don’t want them to waste ink and paper. Unfortunately a lot of stores print the receipt either way and immediately throw it into the trash if you say no.

      Fun fact: Most receipts don’t use ink. Just thermal paper and heat.

    Am I traveling with a fixed per diem, or do I need to submit receipts/costs for reimbursements?

    Totally unscientific observation, but it seems that at airports they rarely ask if you want a receipt, and just assume that you do — which makes sense in the context of business travel.
