Maybe he/she just likes giving Tesco 20p, after all Every Little Helps!0

In my local co op they don't ask if you want the receipt - you have to ask them for it. Amidst much tutting and puffing and blowing, it's then shoved at you over the counter.
I can't believe the number of times they've overcharged for something - like if an item's 2 for the price of 1, they just charge for 2 at full price.0 -

When they huff and puff, you should say very sweetly but very loudly; "I'm sorry but I've been overcharged here so many times I need the receipt to check".
Choose a day when there are plenty of customers in the queue and they'll soon learn that huffing and puffing is not such a good idea.There are two types of people in the world: Those that can extrapolate information.0 -
I work in Sainsbury's and on the tobacco kiosk we have to ask if the customer wants a receipt, because the purchases are small and you don't really need a receipt for tobacco or lottery. Although if you pay by card it automatically prints a card receipt.0

Thanks to those replying to my Co-op receipt query. Wish the Tesco receipt folk would go away and start another thread.!0

Not a Tesco Extra receipt
'Please pay the cashier before leaving with your purchases'.
How do you get a receipt without paying first?
Photoshop no! More like Microsoft Paint!0 -
Right, I have been up to my Co-op again and spoken to the Manager. He says there are 3 questions which must be asked of all customers.
Do you have a membership?
Do you want a bag?
Do you want a receipt? (only if paying cash)
I asked, why do you ask about receipt? His reply - 'Don't know, just told that this is what we do!' I asked if it was some sort of 'green policy'. His answer 'Maybe, but we haven't been told'.0
