What if Bubba the security guard stopped your wife and you demanding to see the receipt ?
Well at Walmart, they don't actually stop you, I just waive a piece of paper that looks like the receipt and keep going. At BJs, the guy actually stopped me, but I don't think he actually had a right to do that, he put his foot on my cart stopping it from moving. I suppose I could have kept pushing, but it was one quick motion, foot on the cart, grabbed the receipt out of my hand punched it and then I kept going. Normally if there's no line, I keep my cart rolling, hand them the receipt and then reach backward to grab the receipt so they don't waste too much of my time. They basically have no right to stop you if you haven't stolen anything. If it's a membership club, the terms of the agreement allow them to stop you, but if you kept going, all they could really do is terminate your agreement, assuming they could figure out who you were.
