Rapunzlle, Rapunzlle Let down your receipt from the store!



What in the world is up with today's receipts??
To the people who print receipt tape with ads on the back: Cut it out. When I'm on the phone and I need to quickly find a piece of scrap paper to write down an important phone number, I don't want to see an ad for carpet cleaning. It's universally understood that the back of a receipt should be left blank so that it can be used as scratch paper. It is getting crazy, they are like 10 times longer than they need to be with tons of useless information. there is the part with the personalized message from the employee thanking you an advertisement for how you can phone in your prescription, then there is the ad for the online survey you can take where you could win $1 trillion dollars for filling it out. Then because English is our official language and we have to cater to everyone the whole thing is in Spanish again! and then the date and time is printed like 5 times all over the receipt! and at the very bottom there is a $2 coupon off your next $250 purchase at Walgreens....because everyone spends tons of money when they go to Walgreens, no one goes there to buy like 2 things!!!!!
Week #2 has been fantastic! tonight there is some great competition. In Topeka at Bullfrogs Live...League of Superheroes holds a 30 point lead over the Slackers. More Cowbell looks to build on their 300 point lead at Jerry's Bait Shop in Lenexa. The Underachievers and The Gary are just 15 points our of 1st place at Johnny's in Shawnee.
