If you work register for a 6-8 hour shift you will go through 2-3 rolls of receipt tape. Before the coupon system was introduced it was 1 roll a day. Source: Me.

As a cashier at CVS, I imagine between us and Toys R' Us, we'll have the Amazon cleared in about a year or two.

It took me a second to realize that the long receipts of CVS and Toys 'R' Us weren't going to put Amazon.com out of business.

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one that was more distracted by the car than the receipt length.

You're either anal about keeping your car immaculately clean, or this is a well played Lexus ad.
...and that's a long receipt, too.

Bought Settlers of Catan from Toys R Us last week. We used the receipt for a score card due to the fact it was 4' long, and had a nice plain backing to it.

It's so you can't return anything, can't walk back in carrying that thing flying around in the wind would look ridiculous

Thank you for your purchase. Could you throw this away for us? Thanks! We're real busy selling toys and just don't have time to throw them away. Thanks again.

And of course that paper is covered in BPA, which is just perfect for a store that sells merchandise for kids.
