You can't walk into a trader joes ,buy something and then turn around and sell it on Amazon. I think you should try eBay.
You will not get your account reactivated.

Are you trying to sell something you bought at Trader Joe's as a retail customer? Or do you have a business account with them (by your message, I don't think this is the case)?
Since you only have a receipt (as a retail customer) and not an invoice (as a business customer), then you cannot sell whatever you bought from there as 'New' on Amazon's site.
I am sorry to say, there is no way for you to save your account in order to sell your Trader Joe's product,
You may be able to re-activate your account if you completely change your business model. Become an authorized seller/re-seller of a different product and ask Amazon if you can sell that.
Good luck!

In this case, amazon won't accept your receipt. Amazon will ask you for the invoice.

Since you have OBVIOUSLY not bothered to study anything BEFORE you started 'selling' I'm giving you the entire lecture.
Please note that it will NOT do you any good but MAYBE it will save some other rookie from roasting and toasting their account.
You are confusing AMAZON allowing you to list (or at least "ungate") an item or category and actually being APPROVED to sell a product. AMAZON is only interested in FEES. They will allow a chimpanzee to list if it means they collect $$$$$.
You really need to go study Seller U instead of TikTok and YouTube before your account gets kicked to the curb permanently.
NOTE -- You SHOULD have but you didn't -- YOU ARE TOAST.
Since you don't appear to have done that PLEASE pay attention to the following:
The first question is -- Are you authorized IN WRITING by the BRAND to sell their items on Amazon? That means from the BRAND, not some random wholesale source that can NOT authorize anything – they only SELL.
More and more brands have provided a "whitelist" of their approved sellers and if YOU are NOT on the list you will be stopped in your tracks and probably hit with an IP violation.
The second (and probably more important) question is -- Where are you sourcing your products? Are you buying direct from the brand or through an AUTHORIZED wholesale source?
NOTE – DOING RA IS NOT PERMITTED ON AMAZON. PERIOD
Note -- YOU were doing RA and despite what @Seller_ImP1urpxemf0A says you can't even do that on eBay any longer!
There are a LOT of FAKE wholesalers out there ranging from places like Sam's Club, Costco, BJs Wholesale and others to all those Gray market providers touted on TikTok, Twitter, YouTube and other places. AND there are places like Ali#$#$ that sell counterfeits and knockoffs.
Any of the guys mentioned have resulted in so many account suspensions that it is impossible to count the number.
When Amazon says in Seller U to use an Authorized Reseller they mean an AUTHORIZED (by the BRAND) Wholesale Distributor – NOT some random wholesale distributor that has “thousands of brands” in stock but is NOT authorized by the brand.
Here is an Amazon MOD response to another post with similar issues. I share this because a FEW people don’t believe in needing permission to sell from the BRAND.
“Hello @Photo1,
My name is Dougal from the Community Manager Team. This can be a difficult topic to navigate so I appreciate you posting here in case others have the same or a similar question.
Thanks to @NEVERLAST and @Brigittefor providing assistance and I don't have much more to add other than restating that you need the Brand Owner's approval to sell their brand. I also want to provide you the help page on why a letter of authorization is needed and what should be included in it: Letter of Authorization.
Hope this helps and please let us know if you have any other questions.
Best,
Dougal”

I hate to confirm this, but the days of Retail Arbitrage are over on Amazon.
To be safe, every ASIN you sell must be backed-up by a Wholesale Invoice by a Manufacturer or Distributor recognized as Authentic by Amazon.
IF / WHEN you are able to secure Wholesale Terms with an Authorized Distributor, you MAY be able to get reinstated as an FBA Seller.
I do not believe you will have any path to reinstatement using a Retail invoice proving Retail purchase of a product.
Those days are Done on Amazon.

AGAIN IT IS NOT POLICY... Ill keep correcting all the misinformation until people start giving CORRECT information

Answered your own problem.
Only Suppliers, Distributors & Wholesalers provide Invoices.
Can't resell what's already been REsold once at a REtailer.

ONLY AMAZON IS ALLOWED TO DO THAT!

Good luck doing that with a brick and mortar, even in another country....

That is at all not accurate. Amazon is only interested in fees that come without risk and hassle to Amazon. They forego many opportunities for fees in the service of minimizing risk. In fact they wage a 24/7 continuous battle keeping potential fee generating new and used products off their catalog.
Most likely because there are huge amounts of gravy out there to satisfy their desire for easy "low hanging fruit" revenue. They don't need to scrape for tainted business that might introduce complexity into their hugely successful business model.
