I know what Torgersen testified, but seriously ... how much sense does it make for a business (any business) to issue a receipt to their customer that has no identification on it whatsoever, yet their in-store copy is covered with their name, the items, prices, etc.

Regarding the part about no name on the receipt-if it's a Mom&Pop type business that's been there for a long time.and with an established clientele,I could see where that might happen. Especially if the receipts are computer generated,and the owners are like me and spend more time swearing at the computer than doing things with it,lol. If a glitch developed where the customer's copy didn't have the store name on it,but the control number was there,and the items could be found,Mom or Pop might have just said,"To hell with it,it can stay like that as long as we can figure out what the customers dropped off."

I don't buy it. But it could happen. I just went back and looked at it again. It has the cleaner's name, address, phone number, date, time, customer name, description of items, pick up day (TUE), the number at the top that the drycleaning clerks said didn't mean anything, prices, and a total. But Torgerson testified that the receipt he (Torgersen) had to work with didn't have any identifiers on it at all and ... BINGO!!!!

Oh, my goodness, you guys just witnessed an epiphany (see definition earlier).

HIS RECEIPT DIDN'T HAVE ANY IDENTIFYING INFO ON IT, BUT OTT TOLD HIM WHERE TO GO!!!!!!!!!! OTT, OTT, OTT!!!!
