Keep Your Receipt is a small release by Reel Big Fish in 1997 between their albums Turn the Radio Off and Why Do They Rock So Hard. It includes songs from their two previous releases; the aforementioned Turn the Radio Off and 1995's Everything Sucks, plus a cover of an Operation Ivy song, previously released on a tribute album.

The release also features enhanced CD-ROM content. Specifically, it includes the music videos for the songs "Sell Out" and "Everything Sucks." It also includes a live video of the band playing "Trendy" at a small venue, which is technically the earliest live release by the band. There is also a mini-game called "Play the Axe with Reel Big Fish," during which the user uses their mouse to play horns along with the song "241."
