If you ever do visit a Fry's again, the trick for that "let me check your receipt and mark it with a pink sharpie" person is to just smile and walk right by. They won't stop you or question you, because they have been trained that it would be unlawful to do so. They can ask to see your receipt and check it, but they can't demand it.
More than once there has been a line of a half dozen people at the pink sharpie exit, and I've just walked on by, much to the amazement of the people waiting in line.
Note: I'm talking about Fry's, not Costco. I'm told Costco is different because it's a membership club and you have to agree to their terms and conditions to shop there. (I'm also told that even Costco can't demand to see your receipt, but they can cancel your membership if you don't show it.)
- hollerith 7y ago>even Costco can't demand to see your receipt, but they can cancel your membership if you don't show it How does Costco figure out which membership to cancel? Surely they don't detain you if you refuse to show your receipt.
- Stratoscope 7y agoI must confess ignorance on this, I am only reporting what I heard and most likely misunderstood!
- pinkythepig 7y agoPretty quick to watch the tapes and see what register you bought from. You have to scan membership id at checkout, so then seeing whos membership was used is simple.

- treeman79 7y agoDid that in past. Guy started freaking out. Supervisor had to calm him down. Current nearby Frys plays dirty. Has a severely physically disabled guy checking receipts. Yea. Total guilt trip for not letting him mark receipt.
