Why does everyone ask this now? Starbucks, gas station, fast food.

Because the receipt is owed to the customer and some people actually want it while other's just throw it away...

Saving paper and consideration. With how many people just crumple it up or leave it on the counter, it's a nice way of asking if they should waste your time with it.

I just can't understand how it started happening. Was there some sort of movement that I missed?

It's just proof that you bought something. In case one of your friends ever questions if you really did indeed buy that donut...

For those of us that have to do expense reports it makes sense. Typically for crap purchases I dont want one, however if I am even paying for a coffee with my corporate card I need to have a receipt so I can expense it.

Why don't you ask them why they are asking?

Report here when your task is completed.

they are required by law to have receipts....and some locales make it mandatory to give or offer a receipt as proof of purchase contract


sometimes it's just store policy to prevent fraud and abuse
