braveheartli I want to mention the figures on the receipt "On the receipt" is correct. Don't forget the period. In everyday practice, we tend to think of the receipt as a piece of paper - sometimes as a document.

  • In either case, "on" is the preposition: on the paper; on the document.
  • " In the document" would not be incorrect, but "at" would never be used.
