ID requirement during check out
Recently I bumped into an article in Money magazine (June 2008 - pg. 22) which stated that we are *not* required to show the id on being asked for one by the checkout person at grocery store (for example). Seems like a lot of the merchants don’t know about this but Visa, Mastercard and Discover actually forbid stores from asking for a id from the customer. The merchant is supposed to honor the transaction even if the customer declines to show their id.
