I got an e-receipt via text at Walmart tonight. I was excited because I HATE all those bitty pieces of paper that get crumpled up at the bottom of my purse. At the end of the transaction the cashier handed me a paper copy too. 
The bottom of the paper receipt tells me to check my text for the other receipt.
So much for saving paper. |

Reminds me of the cashiers who bag my groceries in plastic bags and then inside my recycled bags that I brought in. Defeats the purpose of me bringing my own bags. Sheesh!

At the stores that I have been to that have that system they give you the options of print, email or both. Perhaps they're new to the system and haven't quite figured it all out?

Definitely new to the system. I didn't notice an option for both.

I'm all for saving paper, but not if they are going to use my email address (or text info) to bombard me with information. I'm already getting way too many emails from places I've done business with, even when I've been given a paper receipt.

I'm already getting way too many emails from places I've done business with, even when I've been given a paper receipt. I have multiple email accounts. One is just family and close friends that don't do forwards. Another is for friends who do forwards (friends start out on the second account and may be given the first one once I know they know how to bcc and not flood me with forwarded cute stuff) Then I have a third account I give to merchants and use to register for websites. I rarely go there unless I am looking for something specific like an email reciept. |

Volt, I do that too, but I hate how full that email account is and never check it, so for receipts it takes forever to find what I need.

K-mart has that option too. Then they hand you a mile long sheet with coupons and specials.

I hate stores that ask to email my receipts, I assume they want to add me to their advertising list. I like the paper receipts so I can enter them on my budget spreadsheet when I get home.
