DeJohn posted the receipt on Instagram.
Schumer worked as a bartender before she made it big.
After the show, she tweeted:
@megbakertv @CBSNewYork lots of love to my fellow bartenders and artists. I'm grateful to them and the cast and crew for another great night

And since the ladies haven't had a chance to thank Schumer personally, they have a message for the star: “Thank you, Amy! You're amazing!”
Schumer also joked on Monday that she needs the money back.
This is really embarrassing but I've fallen on hard times and I need that money back
