Grocery Shopping

Ever wonder why those receipts you get when you go shopping, are so long? Seriously. You go to Albertsons or Vons, spend $50 and the receipt is a good twelve inches long. Spend $80, and the receipt jumps to eighteen inches. Ever wonder why?

I think I know.

I think they fill the receipt with all the numbers - 3 for $4 or whatever other figures consume the pages of receipt, to fool you into believing you are getting more for your money. You walk away with one bag, but man oh man, you have a twelve inch long receipt with all sorts of numbers and figures and words, none of which makes much sense, so it must be important.


I suspect the receipts will get longer or the print will get smaller as costs go up.
