Thanks for asking...

I love that when I to to Jimmy John's (among other places) they ASK ME if I would like my receipt. Why do I need that receipt? I'll ask if I need one, ok?

Mitch Hedberg (one of the funniest people ever!) summed it up perfectly:

I bought a doughnut, and they gave me a receipt.
There is no need for that, man.
I'll just give you the money, you give me the doughnut. End of transaction.
We do not need to bring ink and paper into this.
I cannot imagine a situation in which I would have to prove that I bought a doughnut.
Some skeptical friend: "Hey man! Don't even act like I didn't buy that doughnut! I got the documentation right here...damn...I forgot it at home... it's in the filing cabinet...under D...for doughnut."
