Dilbert two Sunday's ago covered this, sort of. Dilbert's mom goes in to
return a scarf, and the clerk says she's on the bad customer list, and
she's bought and returned the same scarf 17 times. "Company policy says
I have to harvest your organs and sell them on eBay."

It was a good poke at both customer and store abuses.
