Would you like the receipt with you, or in the bag?
by Denise Sawicki on November 8, 2006
I don't really understand why people ask this. Doesn't it take longer to ask this question and wait for the answer than to just let the person do what they please with the receipt? Oh well.
I will think about that in lieu of the local election results which have my husband pretty depressed. It seems like everything happens in this world specifically to depress him. I don't like it either but I was too busy working at my regular job to be able to spend too much time campaiging for this thing.

Well, you want to know where your receipt is in case you have to bring something back...

I never really noticed or minded until you mentioned this a few weeks ago, Denise, and now I notice and mind (just a little bit) every time. It happens a lot at the corner Walgreen's for me, and that's a place where people get curmudgeonly about their returns without receipts, so maybe the store has instituted a policy of forcing the clerk to ask such an awkward question every time so all parties present know where the receipt went. Or, maybe people are just dumb.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe Walgreen's actually has a full-refund-if-they-don't-offer-your-receipt-back-at-time-of-purchase policy...

We had a nice thunder snowstorm on Tuesday evening. It was kind of surreal actually. I don't remember experiencing such odd weather before. Go »Why have I not checked this show out before?...
So I happened to find disk 1.1 of Queer as Folk (American version) at the library and it is rare to see disk 1.1 of anything so I checked it out. Go »Giant flakes of cereal
The big news of today is we found a big flake of raisin bran crunch. I don't know if it's quite as big as the one featured in the coming link but it's pretty big. You can get some idea of what my life is like because I then proceeded to google for "largest flake" and "giant flake". Go »Found things, jerkishness, fuzziness
This morning I found my black pants that have been gone for nigh on a year. They weren't even anywhere weird. They were just on the floor in the closet. Go »Free stuff bandits
So we discovered that the limited edition "holiday" flavors of that Swiss chocolate are secretly on sale for 90% off... so we went and bought out all the gingerbread chocolate from the Target stores in Fargo and Moorhead, haha. We are so evil. Go »
