I don’t get one old ppl joke

I work part time at Migros and only in the last 2 days 3 elderly ppl were joking about needing the receipt for the tax declaration. I don’t get the joke😭 all of them said it jokingly but whenever I made an hypothesis the next one falsified it, so can anyone here explain what’s the deal plz? Thanks guys

It's just an irreverent gag; a reply that makes sense in other situations, but not this one. People get all kinds of receipts for their tax declarations, but obviously not shopping receipts.

I even do it for shopping receipts when it's related to work like croissants, coffee, redbull, ...
