If we don't give you your receipt, your purchase is free.
For years now I have been seeing signs at some businesses saying "If we don't give you your receipt, your purchase is free". It seemed frivolous until one day when I bought a meal at a local fast food restaurant. The bill was like $21.47 and I gave woman working the counter exact change. The woman put the cash on top of the register. She did not enter the order into their Store POS System so the kitchen help would know to make meals. Instead, she ran to the kitchen, made our meals and handed them to me. I walked to a table and watched her. The woman pocketed the money and made an extra $21.47 that day tax free. There was no record of the sale ever being made. The kitchen help, which included the supervisor, had to be in on the whole thing. Three things had to happen in order for the employee to pull this off. First, the sale had to be exact change. Second, the kitchen staff had to look the other way. Third, there was no sign saying "If we don't give you your receipt. your purchase is free".Labels: Store POS System
