You know how whenever you return something to a store …<\/p>\n

They seem to always make you fill out your name and address on one of the copies of the receipts?<\/p>\n

It serves a couple of purposes I suppose …<\/p>\n

One, it’s an audit check to prevent fraud on the part of employees, and<\/p>\n

Two, it’s a way, in theory at least, to track parties who return things excessively, possibly abusively.<\/p>\n

Regardless, it’s my practice to rarely ever put my real name on the form …<\/p>\n

Joe Hairdy nor Amy Preston are frequently used.<\/p>\n
