I forgot to mention that the Big Boss is at the door, Wal-Mart style,
checking receipts against goods.

A number of scenarios went through my mind... hiding the disks,
claiming they were manuals (although I suspect they can't sell
the manuals, either) etc., but I just chalked it up to
experience. I wasted a good 20 minutes arguing (pleasantly)
about a $3 box of software, and that makes less sense to me.

I've visited this place on and off for at least fifteen years,
spent lots of money, and hope to do it in the future. I wouldn't
want to be accused of shoplifting because of some old PC disks.
