Point#8
Returning shit at stores.
The real bitch work of a no budget movie. So Dastolis bought a bunch of shit for the movie. Nothing crazy there. But here's where the "producing" comes in.
I have to go back to whatever store they had gone to (Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Michaels) and return what they bought. Everything was meticulously put back into the bags they purchased from and given to me with a receipt.
I was told I needed to do this because brothers Dastoli were paranoid of being found out by the obvious geniuses that work at these establishments.
An example of a return went something like this.
Home Depot: Is anything wrong with it?
Brett: No.
Home Depot: Ok.
(They process the return)
Home Depot: Here you go.
(They hand me the cash)
Pretty much every transaction went like that.
