Here's the solution:
If the sales reciept is the only posting of the return policy, the policy wasn't in plain view at the time of the purchase.
Take the store to small claims court, ask for the amount of the purchase in damages, and then the remainder of the 3000/5000 dollar limit in punitive damages.
Then, explain to the judge that if the return policy had been posted in plain sight, you would have shopped elsewhere.
You can't print a policy on a store reciept, since a customer doesn't get to see the policy until AFTER the sale has been made.

I can see kidnappers and pedophiles all across the nation installing these things in their secret dungeon rooms.
I say we put them in prison cells and give inmates a view of a city street with a McDonalds in the picture so they'll always wish they had a big mac.....sheer torture.

uhm....what kind of company monitors your personal credit report, and would fire you if you're in some type of dispute???
Man I thought it sucked where I worked....
I would think that would be some sort of invasion of privacy.

Dunno if it's property of NBC/Universal, but...
How about Starman?
I don't recall it being the best show, but it could have potential.
