This guy should DIAFF.

What a pointless meep.

I dunno.
I get tired of showing my card and receipt to the nazis at CostCo.
Sometimes a meep has to make a stand to protect the little personal freedoms we seem to love to give away.

i feel like a criminal every single time guitar center aggressively checks my receipt on the way out. meep those policies.

Never been asked for a receipt at a walmart.
Costco, however, is a problem.
I've got stories man, stories...

> so that they can properly train their employees. I feel badly about my interaction with Tony and M, since the honestly believed they were doing their jobs. I feel like I should stop by and give them gift cards for performing admirably in the tough situation Walmart has put them in,

haha he is a meep. They did properly train their employees, as someone employed, as he put it, as a receipt checker is, obviously, doing his job when he asks to see. They didn't believe they were doing their jobs, they were doing them. And he creates the situation since it is obvious that he knows they are going to ask for his receipt and he's bothered to look up the state law on the situation

he's a meep and everyone that meepes about having to stop for 30 meeping seconds in their so god meep important life to show a receipt is a meepbag.

specifically @meepbox

but....m-m-my... RIGHTS!@~!

My main gripe is being treated like I stole something or might have stolen something when in fact I actually just patronized their meeping establishment.

Costco states, in big bold letters, that they ask to see your receipt to make sure you were not overcharged for the items you purchased. This is bullmeep of course as the idiot looking at your receipt does not have laser scanner for eyes and certainly cannot remember every price on every item in the store. They instead are comparing the items you are exiting with the store with to the receipt you give them to make sure you are not walking out with meep you did not pay for.

My problem is that they require me to wait in long check out lines (no big deal) to give them at least $100 (as no one escapes Costco spending less than a benji, but no big deal, I'm a good consumer) and then demand I wait in another meeping line so they can make sure I didn't steal something? When I just went out of my way to give them my money and actually paid them money (membership $) for the privilege of giving them more money? Sorry meepsucker, If I'm in a hurry you can not see my receipt and instead suck my muthameeping meep.

Which is what I did In a costco in SLO one day.
Dude grabbed my cart and pulled it aside.
I told him to not touch me or my items as they were my property and instructed him to call his boss. He did as he was told and I informed the manager that his employee had physically prevented me from leaving the store with my items. I told him I was not going to show him my receipt (maybe sounding like an meep because I was plenty pissed by now) and that if he didn't let me leave I was going to call the police. He shot an angry look at his employee (oddly not at me) and said "have a good day sir."

While it is not something I do every time I certainly wouldn't hesitate to do it again if I was in a rush but as costco is only cheaper for certain items like electronics, I frequent other stores for most of my groceries and rarely have to deal with the walmart-like meep hole costco has become.

PS: WTF is with the code? No html meeps? meeping paragraphs blurrrrrrrrrr

The way I understand it, if you have a contract with a store like Sam's Club, BJ's, and possibly Costco (don't know, we don't have Cosco here) you have a card that you use to show that you are a member of that store. To get that card, you had to sign a contract, and in that contract, you agreed to show them your receipt any time they ask. Now, the Sam's I go to, the first register is literally 12 feet away from the guy who checks your receipt. He wathes me go through the checkout, pick up my purchase, a single bag of dog food, get in line behind all the people who now have to get their receipt checked, so he can check my reciept. I ask him if anyone has ever stolen something between the checkout and him, he tells me yes. Whatever, I have no recourse, if I want to save a couple of dollars here and there, I have to agree to this stupidity.

Walmart, Best-Buy, Lowes, Home-Depot, and countless other stores: I have no signed contract with them, and I have no reason to show them my receipt. The law states that I do not have to show them my reciept. If they physically stop me from leaving the store becasue I won't show them my receipt, and they do not have any reason to believe that I have just stolen something, I can take out my cell phone and call the police and tell them I am being held against my will. You would think these stores would know this by now, there are enough informed individuals out there that are tired of being treated like criminals. When they ask for your receipt, just say "No thank you" and walk out of the store.

"he's a meep and everyone that meepes about having to stop for 30 meeping seconds in their so god meep important life to show a receipt is a meepbag."

That's right, just let them do whatever they want to you. I can see someone like you coming a mile a way and pretty much do whatever I want to you with a little bit of intimidation. Wolves just love sheep.

Haha, yea you're a meeping wolf because you refuse to show some minimum wage drone your receipt as you leave walmart. Regular old James Dean here folks

Mofo: Ya missed the point entirely, try again. People who will roll over and let anyone do anything they want to them are sheep. People who take advantage of the sheep are wolves. Showing a receipt for no reason except that someone (wrongly) tells you you have to is a piddling exercise that is a precursor to larger things. If you can't stand up for yourself for such a small thing, you'll likely not stand up for yourself for a bigger thing.

Case in point, I know a guy who won't stand up for himself for anything. He's driving along, gets pulled over for not coming to a full stop. Cop asks if he can search the car. I've told this guy a hundred times that it is his right to say "No" if a cop asks him this question. He was not high at the time, had not smoked anything in his car, but his car was a mess, McDonalds bags all over, trash, whatever. He gets scared and tells the cop to go ahead and search, the cop finds a bag of weed. Why? He got scared, he was a SHEEP. As a saleman, I could spot the sheep walk in the door, and jack up the price, or sell him somehting he didn't need. Easy pay day. Bottom line: You do NOT have to show your receipt to these guys asking to see it 10 feet away from teh checkout, the law is on your side, just be polite and tell them no thenk you, and walk out the door.
