So whenever you go shopping for goods now you seem to get the offer of having an e-receipt sent to you ...which of course requires you providing your email address.
Now I quite like the idea of having an e-receipt as I can save them all in a folder and am less likely to lose them unlike the papery version.
However what it does mean is that you then automatically get subscribed to the organisations hourly, weekly , monthly updates, newsletters and promo offers and then have to unsubscribe individually from the variations of this bumf.
I want to be able to unsubscribe at source and say you can only have my email address for the receipt and the receipt only . I tried this at the weekend and was assured that this would not be used for any other purposes.
Since then I have an email saying when their sale starts, another welcoming me to their site, another with this months promotions and another with their christmas opening hours Banghead cussing: cussing: Banghead cussing: Banghead cussing: Banghead cussing: censored:

When does their sale start?

Didn't read it ...I was too busy struggling to find the size 2 font, that is no longer underlined or in bold, to direct me to the unsubscribe function evil:

Problem is you go to some craft fairs or the like and that's the only receipts they give
-
Anything that requires some sort of guarantee then I would go through this process of an e-receipt and hassle of email flooding.
But for usual crap or toot I refuse to give my email address and require a paper receipt evil:

High tech here is not needing carbon paper when they write your receipt out... noooo:
