Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

Ranging Receipts

I have somehow developed a rather nasty cough. My go-to medicine for a cough (and associated symptoms) is generic DayQuil.

I ran out yesterday, so I went to CVS to get some more. Something really weird happened. The receipt I got looked like this:

It’s so short! Just the day before, I was at the same CVS for some chocolate milk, and it was four times as long. I entered my CVS number both times. Maybe the system remembered that I had gotten a long one on Monday, so it gave me a short one on Tuesday. I think this might call for some experimentation…

    I had heard something about some situation with CVS and their receipts. Was is on Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me? Let me go look…..Yep. It’s about California banning the long receipts. Maybe it went into effect on Tuesday? https://www.npr.org/2019/04/06/710465320/bluff-the-listener
