If it really was against the law in VA someone would have played the Lawsuit Lotto on Wal-Mart by now and they wouldn’t be checking receipts at the door anymore. You will note that Rick didn’t cite the law in his screed.

Strawman. It isn't against the law to ask to see receipts, but it certainly is against the law to detain someone for not showing them, and there is no law requiring the customer's cooperation with the store's request. The customer is legally free to just say "no" and keep walking.

It’s not really a strawman since Rick claimed there is a VA law that says they’re not allowed to check a receipt. You are also claiming that such a law exists but you haven’t given a cite to its statute number either. That’s a red herring.
