Bought some stuff at Loews today.

"That'll be $13.76" the nice lady said.

I laid a ten and a five on the counter.

"May I have your telephone number, please?" the nice lady asked.

"If I give you my telephone number, you'll call. I'll cuss you out then I'll
get in trouble for using obscene language," I said.

"We won't call, I promise," she said.

"I know you won't call, because I'm not giving you my telephone number. How
do I know you're not collecting numbers so you can call me in the middle of
the night just to talk dirty?"

"No, we're trying to crack down on people who take things, then try to
return them without a receipt. But if we put in telephone numbers, we can
verify that the item was really bought."

"Oh," said I. "In that case my telephone number is WAtermelon U ate one too
green."

Scam. Like I want my phone number in their database to keep track of
everything I buy. Or for DHS to get hold of someday cause I bought one
too many boxes of deck screws.

Lots of places already record ID info if they give a refund w/o a
receipt, to fight theives who return stolen goods, so no need to
collect phone no at checkout.

that's nothing
when I went to HD one day my sale came to $19.70
I gave her a $20
then there was a power failure
and the "young girl" says to me.
I can't give you your change until the power goes back on because the
register did not compute how much change was due to you.

where do they find there help
on the street corners?
oh no ............wait................... even those girls can give you
exact change.

867-5309 is the number I always give.
