Receipt Revelation
From the creator of “Snaps” and “Persona” comes a powerful mentalism routine that fits in your pocket.
Every magician, whether a professional or hobbyist, needs a pocket miracle that is always with them and ready at a moment's notice. The strongest tricks for these situations use items that are natural to carry, feel impromptu and are hard hitting. “Receipt Revelation” perfectly fits the bill as an EDC that isn’t just easy to do, but also entertaining and deeply fooling.
You take out several restaurant receipts, each with a different total cost, as well as a few bills, and invite your participant to freely select one. There is no forcing, and they can even change their mind. Whatever they choose, you always have the exact amount of cash to match the receipt’s total. While this might be considered a lucky coincidence, the surprising kicker proves you predicted their choice from the very beginning.
“Receipt Revelation” is direct, powerful mentalism with natural, relatable props. Slip it into your wallet and you will always be ready to perform. Along with teaching his routine, David shares how to customize the effect by making your own receipts. After the one-time initial setup, there is no reset and you’ll be ready to perform anytime, anywhere!

Customer reviews for Receipt Revelation
There is an issue if you use UK currency, as (whisper it) this depends on all the bills being the same size. David covers this perfectly well in his explanation.
However. I've had an idea to use coins instead of notes. It does not take much ingenuity to work out how a coin purse can be used to tip out the requisite number of the right coins - hint: tiny magnets in the end corners. There, I've said too much. In which case, as I said to the woman in the back of my car last night, size doesn't matter.
