    No, you're bitching about the ID thing to start a thread. Your posts however have shown quite clearly the real issue is he was mean to your woman.

    Even this post :crackup:

    They don't check everyone's receipt , it's random . But that does not matter . Once you pay for it it's your personal property. No one has the right to inspect or rummage through your stuff with out your permission. If you give them permission... Fine , that's your right . They don't have the right to hold you hostage to inspect your receipt before leaving the store . It's called the 4 th amendment to the Constitution.

    They check everyone in every store I've ever seen receipts checked, it is not random anywhere I've been all across the country. Granted you can walk right past them but they're not picking you out because you look shifty. Hell, the Wally World greeters doing it can't even see far enough to profile anyone.

    No one anywhere has ever remotely come close to saying they can hold you hostage. Not the stores, not here. No clue why people keep bringing it up. No clue why Dern tried to make it part of his original story.

    There are utube vids that clearly show them refusing to let people leave the store without showing a receipt . Even to the point of putting hands on them . Just because some have never seen it , doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

    Best Buy is the worst at checking receipts at the door. The thought never entered my mind to tell them to fuck off.

    I do it a few times a week at my Kroger. Scan it, the clerk looks at me and pushes a button, I pay and walk away.

    I suppose you can make that argument if you decide to ignore the word "unreasonable." But they can probably make a pretty good case that checking receipts against purchases is not unreasonable when you consider how much it gets stolen in the store.

    Same here. I would say 8 out of 10 times they just make eye contact and hit something on their screen. Occasionally they will come over and check it, which doesn't really bother me.

    I'm not above admitting I own one of his T-shirts. I wear it every year when I go visit the family out in the sticks where they do the combine demolition derby.

    Dude, not above admitting to owning one? Dude, you should scream it at your kid's graduations, when you're on the podium thanking your sponsors and, shit, it should be in your signature line here. :D

    Did you cut the sleeves off of it?

    By wanting to check receipts they're assuming that everyone in the store is stealing stuff, that's what I don't like.

    You know that how? Maybe they're checking to make sure you didn't over pay for that pallet of toilet paper and that 800 pack of individually packaged eggo waffles you just picked up?

    Come on, that's like saying that they're assuming that everyone at the airport is carrying a gun.

    By the way, if it makes you this mad to get scrutinized while shopping, you would NOT enjoy the black experience. :D

    Of course the sleeves are cut off. Someone in the extended family out there recently transplanted a hot rod motor from Harbor Freight into a golf cart. So now we can roll up in style too.


    Part of me wishes I was making any of this up......
