No receipt thank you: Save paper and ink and BPA exposure!

Hey all,

If you have the option to say no to a receipt, doing so will save the paper and ink required to print it (not to mention the electricity).

But there is now another reason to avoid receipts: 40% of receipts tested contain the chemical BPA which is not good for our health.

I used to put receipts into my grocery bags next to food, now I'm going to stop that practice!
