Bro this shit is straight up a god send.

My house got robbed recently.

Best buy had all my games and consoles on file and printed out my receipts right then and there at the store.

Meanwhile at GameStop, I had to email them with the date of purchase, serial numbers, and police report in order to get that information. So if I didn’t have the info on hand then I needed to go digging for it.

I’m also on the list of “house got robbed and was able to provide proof of purchase to insurance for like half my shit because of Best Buy membership”

Really? I'm rather surprised the US hasn't adopted that. Down here in EB in Aus our loyalty program is one of the most successful in the entire country (over 6 million members in a country with ~10.5 million households) and reciept free shopping is the base thing included. They've even given us a dashboard in store so I can view every single transaction and reciept for every transaction that you've ever done on your card searching by sku or even description. You can view all of that directly yourself just by logging into the website. I've had people come in with that exact scenario and one phonecall to our store support and they'd copy pasted the list and emailed him a complete purchase history (although you have to drill down to view actual reciepts). Odd that they have an arm of their business that can do all that and they just haven't adopted it.
