This sounds like something Hitler would say about Jews.

I hated that about Fry's electronics too. That checkout line is so long and snakey and lined with merchandise, I don't know why they have to check my receipt at the door. They just need to shake down the people that don't emerge from the checkout line.

if they dont emerge from the line, how can they be shaken down?

I didn't realize people looked at those receipts after the guard at the exit hands it back. It goes into my pocket or is crumpled up in preparation for the nearest trash can because I'd rather get going after waiting in another line to leave the store.

Yep. Milk and eggs alone are worth it. Also the bags of foster farms frozen chicken breasts for $20.

You have to be coordinated enough to pour the milk though, Surfah misses out on that one.

Apparently you don't have kids. They draw all sorts of fun things on the receipts when you have kids.

Utah Costco's still have regular gallon jugs of milk.

So lots of uncoordinated people in Utah? Understood.

Just went to Costco in Lehi. I asked the receipt checker what they look for. She said the receipts have total items number. They look at the total items and try to count to make sure they match. She also said they look closely at any big ticket items.

Thanks for the update. Smiley face on receipt or no?

If you are in the Bountiful area and you would like a discount on nearly-expired Kirkland-brand items, they sometimes have them at the "Clem's Closout" store out by the Legacy Parkway. They also have many nearly-expired brands of weird foreign candy. Check the back of the store in the annex for old paint thinner and other miscellaneous home improvement items. Sometimes they have day-old produce and bread there as well. Great place to save a buck.
