Progression two: Word Picture

My distinct aroma does not define me. I am a thin delicate object, I can come from trees and used as records. My fine ink records your spending. I am always crumbled up into a rough ball. I am given out at any local market or finest restaurant. I can be found on the ground and in many wallets. When the machine prints i can be faded, or even have bold letters. I am smooth and can easily tear. I can be accumulated in a short period of time. Depending on the transaction I can be short or long.
