A month before I was eighteen, Walmart refused to sell me silicon sealent to reseal my friends' headlights. Said it was a state law too, which was a lie, but I went down the road and bought it at a hardware store.

I was at walmart. Had to buy injector cleaner for my car. Went to the oldest lady I could. She carded, and I explained how I wasn't going to sniff it, and if I was, I had expensive tastes. She laughed and put it in the bag.

What does this have to do with the state? It has to do with the retailer.

What's ridiculous is that the liquor stores don't take out of state driver's licenses :confused:

Had to go to 3 of them before I found one that would sell me some beer (I was 22).

RatShack carded you? HAHAHAHA. (Sorry.)

Seriously, I didn't know that RS "carded" for anything.. are you sure that you weren't just confusing the fact that they always try to get your name and address to put you on their mailing list? (They do that to me, even if I pay cash - wtf.)

Were you actually asked to show photo-id? How strange.
