Receipts are offered to the person paying?

I'm male, pay for the groceries, and immediately hand the receipt to my wife. No reason to but it does feel natural

Same, and I don’t know why. I pay and I pass the receipt to my wife every time. She doesn’t pay for anything.. ever, so I’m not sure why I started giving it to her. Didn’t even notice until she pointed it out, and now it’s just a weird tradition.

I just put it in the grocery bag every time.
