Question about maximizing per diem

I'm traveling for work for the first time with this iob and being granted a per diem. I am being told to submit reciepts to our payment system for reimbursement up to x dollars. My job treats me well, but frankly, I don't eat much and if they're willing to give me the money for food, I'd really just like the money period. They don't offer that option.

I'm traveling for work for the first time with this iob and being granted a per diem. I am being told to submit reciepts to our payment system for reimbursement up to x dollars.

My job treats me well, but frankly, I don't eat much and if they're willing to give me the money for food, I'd really just like the money period. They don't offer that option.

I know it isn't exactly ethical, but if I can't have the cash and I dont like to eat heavily, are there places where I can buy… idk anything that will kepp, and it won't be itemized on a receipt? I'll be on a plane with carry on luggage only.

Ultimately, I am not really struggling financially or anything, so I can be fine without working around this, but I have some financial abuse issues (not job related) and am feeling a little wound up.

I'd love to know some options for places that don't itemize purchases or other workarounds if they exist. Asking for cash is 100% not an option.
