Ethical and Green has recently come across a poll being done by Software Advice on whether we should end paper receipts. Here is what they are saying:
”We’re hosting a short poll about getting rid of paper receipts. The poll is on our blog at:http://www.softwareadvice.com/articles/retail/please-kill-the-paper-receipt-102310/.
We think paper receipts are a wasteful vestige of the last millennium. There is no reason – legal or otherwise – why consumers or retailers need paper receipts. Electronic receipts are completely valid and far more efficient. Not to mention, the production of paper receipts do some real damage to our environment.”
Ethical and Green would support the end of paper receipts for two reasons. One they are a waste of paper and two they contain information that could, in some instances, lead to fraud if not disposed of properly. That and they clog up your purse!!
Why not pop over to Software Advice and have your say http://www.softwareadvice.com/articles/retail/please-kill-the-paper-receipt-102310/.
