Enormous receipt annoys K-Mart customer

December 19th, 2006

David at Ironic Sans writes a great post about his ridiculously huge K-mart receipt. He only bought 2 items and the receipt was 21 inches long!

“I did a little math. If every customer purchases exactly two items (an underestimation, I’m sure), then K-Mart goes through approximately one mile of paper every 3,017 customers.”

Here’s a scan of the actual receipt.

Yowsa!

To me, this story is a good example of why Sutori exists. There are lots of places on the web where you can review products but not enough places where can you send a message to companies about other things that are just as important.
