  • Are you likely to have to return your purchase?
  • Are you using cash instead of credit/debit?
  • Do you want to review what you purchased to make sure everything was the correct price and/or (if it’s a bunch of items) that you got everything?
  • Are you being reimbursed/reimbursing someone?
  • Am I in a shopping mall where I’ll be bringing this merchandise into other stores with similar offerings?

if any of the above factors are true:

  • Do you have an account which will let you receive a digital receipt instead?
  • If not, then yes.

If none of the above factors are true: No. At that point to me it’s just a waste of receipt paper and my time.

Sounds complicated. Just say yes and figure it out later.
Yeah, it only matters if it happens often, and if it happens often then you’ll probably get used to it anyway, so that you don’t have to mentally go through a list anymore.
