Funny situation today as I went back to a restaurant to get a receipt for a transaction that occurred yesterday. The one they gave me had no details such as what was ordered and the total taxes. Instead, it just had the total cost and form of payment used.
At first the workers were saying that they couldn’t give me a receipt for the previous day. Then the owner came out and said that I must be using it for business write offs. Funny thing was he then told the staff to just give me any receipt that came close to what I ordered yesterday. Since they couldn’t locate it quickly the owner just gave me like three receipts that almost totaled the same amount.
These are apparently from other customers that simply left their receipts behind. Literally, he was willing to just give me like a handful of them. Kind of interesting I thought as when you think about it someone could just grab receipts like these that people leave behind and use it for their own write-offs.
