They always have been, I took a tour of their facilities in college. I recall being told at the time that every transaction that goes through any of their stores anywhere in the world is saved to a HD and stored in a vault somewhere. Kind of insane when you think about it.
- hga 11y agoIt can be very handy. Five or more years ago, when you returned an item, they'd manually mark the line in your receipt, which works well enough. Yesterday I had to return an item for the first time since then, and after they read the barcode on my receipt from 2 months ago, I saw the whole receipt, or at least the end of it, flash on a small user facing LCD, and they didn't have to do anything else with my paper receipt. For a product quality return like this I can see many ways in which this would be useful.
