Damn, never thought of that. There’s a REASON I might need to prove I bought a doughnut!

This is why it’s common in the black community to get a receipt whenever you buy anything. You can’t prove where you are at all times, but you can prove that you were at a particular time and place. Might save you from being railroaded in a crime you didn’t commit.

I had never heard that before, but that makes a depressing amount of sense.

And not so you are not accused of stealing? That’s my reason of getting receipts.
