do you ask for a receipt?

No i never ask for, i ask where i want it, but some times not having a receipt creates little problems for you, so ask where you think it will be use full for you.

some gasoline stations don't give receipt, but of course i always ask to give me receipt it is important to me for my daily expenses in my car. but there are things not needed a receipt like a candy, lollipop, softdrinks in some stores. you know what i mean. well, be better to have a receipt on a supermarket or any commercialized stores. it really helps on your computing in daily expenses.

Little items like soda or candy, I don't...but it is SOP here that stores will issue a receipt. If they forgot to give you one...some store got a policy that you will get the item for free...=)

i wont ask for a receipt if i bought something small and trivial..like a soda or candybar. but for a trip to the gas station, groceries where i bought more than say 5 things..i always want a reciept.

i do ask for a receipt. it is very iomportant if you want to track your expenses, you would know where you money goes.

It is an SOP for me to ask for a receipt of anything that I purchase. For the simple reason that it is part of budgeting my finances. Besides, this is needed when you pay your income tax. This is also my way of comparing the price of the item I bought previuosly to the present one. When I gas up, I never forget to ask receipt.

I usually don't ask for receipts when i buy anything from a store but when i feel that they are necessary or when the transaction is on credit then i usually like or prefer to get the receipt. They may sometimes really be helpful and protect you from unnecessary risks.

yes, i always ask for a reciept, I'm from India and in our country, all stores should give a reciept, even the petrol pumps and stations. Except for some really cheap items (like Rs. 1 or 2), i ask for a reciept
