Costco and Walmart both sell donuts and ask for receipts. I don't know if they would actually check for a small purchase but you never know.

This is the most productive argument I've ever had.

Which is really just the first scenario (walking out of the donut shop and being accused of theft) in a trench coat. That scenario has already been covered, so my original “that’s pretty much the only two reasons” statement still applies.

OK, and I'm agreeing with you on that, but I think that those two reasons are important enough to be worth getting a receipt.
