Or you check your wallet later and find solid white former receipts.  In fact, nowadays stores are in the habit of asking you if you want your receipt. If you say, Na... they just crumble it and toss it in the trash.  WHY go to all that trouble instead of just handing the receipt to the customer.  Well, I think we all know the answer to that one.  :)    "Yea, give me the vanishing ink receipt.. it's better than nothing at all"
