Non-paper receipts is a really good idea. I have receipts sent to my email whenever I can because I like that it saves paper AND I don’t even look at paper receipts when I receive them anyways.
That said, I also really like my Kent State email address. What you’re thinking is right: I feel cool and proud whenever I am asked my email address and I get to say “@kent.edu” at the end. I am proud that I did something to obtain a college email address before I was even a junior in high school. Now, that said, I also like to keep my inbox fairly clear of spam mail, from Nigerian princes and from stores emailing me coupons all over the place.
And now, a story. On Sunday I told you that it was beautiful and gorgeous and amazing in Ohio so my sister and I went shopping at Crocker Park. First, I took her to Abercrombie and then we went to Urban Outfitters. At Urban Outfitters, I bought a comfy sweater and when I took it up to the register to pay, they asked me is I wanted a paper receipt or an email receipt. Because I am me and I love email receipts, I asked the checkout girl to email it to me and I told her my kent.edu email address. Well well.
I got the receipt. Deleted it before I even read the email and then I looked up at my other new emails and I have a second email from Urban Outfitters. It said “Hello! Thanks for Signing Up to Receive Urban Outfitters Emails!”
ALRIGHT
To start off, Urban Outfitters, you can’t just capitalize any word in a sentence that you like, you are not Margo. And second, I did not, in any way, ever, ask to receive emails from you! I don’t want you in my inbox telling me about potential deals I could be receiving, not on my kent.edu email anyways. I trusted Urban because they were being environmental, and they betrayed me. They’re betraying everyone, raping poor customers inboxes with their spammy emails. Ugh. I’ll be shopping at H&M from now on.
So now, I proudly present a new made-for-spam, email address:
hayleygetscoupons@gmail.com
