The CVS Receipt meme highlights the absurdity of the pharmacy chain’s notoriously long paper receipts, which often print several feet of coupons even for minor purchases. The trend gained massive traction on social media around 2013 as customers began posting photos of receipts that were taller than people or long enough to wrap around entire rooms. It has since become a classic internet trope representing retail absurdity and environmental irony. People use this template to joke about the overwhelming number of coupons provided for simple transactions or to compare the receipt's length to other excessively long objects and situations.
