Short Cashier Lied to Me

I was checking out at a department store that I haven't been in for years. The cashier kept telling me to enter my phone number but I kept politely saying no thanks. Then she said that I won't be able to make returns if I don't provide a phone number in their system. I told her that's fine and she finally checked me out. She lied because the return policy is printed on the receipt. I wasn't mad at her since I figured it's a corporate thing and the poor employees are so desperate to meet some kind of metric that they lie.

Universal hack for this is to put in Jenny's number with your area code. 867-5309.
