CVS strikes again

I wanted to share this proud moment with y'all.  Today I stopped at CVS -- for those unfamiliar, CVS is a US drugstore chain notorious for its absurdly long receipts -- and scored a personal best. 34.5 inches (87.6 cm)!!!

  1. Holy crap! I remember those but I never measure one. That is absurd. Here, most places only print receipts if you say you want one -- so they don’t waste paper!

  2. Most of our shops also ask if you want a receipt and I say No.
    I shudder to think of what I might say after being given a 3 foot long receipt.

  3. They ask here too. I was using a self-checkout, which also gives you a choice of paper, email, or none. I wanted to remember how much I paid for the item - yes, this was a receipt for only ONE item - and pressed paper.

  4. That yard stick must be 40 years old.

  5. Do you use any of those coupons printed on there?

    1. I gave up on coupons years ago. I'd forget to take them shopping, and if I did remember, I'd forget I had them. Coupons are just adverse to my psyche, I guess.
