Why this phrase
POV: expense report. Kofuku is the tourist at a restaurant or hotel till. Hana is the cashier. A 「レシート」 is the thin till slip. A 「領収書」 is the stamped official receipt with the shop name and amount, the one accounting actually files. He asks 「領収書をお願いします」. Some shops write it by hand. Distinct from asking for any receipt (tourist-reshiito-kudasai) and from tax-free paperwork.
