I suppose a receipt is written proof of how much you are charged in total.

Aye, but the two or three tickets you have just bought have the prices on regardless.

Just seems a bit daft companies are introducing smartcard technology, reducing the paper they use - but are adding receipts to bus tickets.

Never had one last weekend - but did today.
