Same thing for picking up prescription at CVS/Walgreens.

They make you verify your phone number and address. Every. Single. Time. In public.

It's a shame how silly it all is.

I actually feel kinda sad for you, seems so cumbersome, yet I can't relate at all. Really bizarre to me as an Estonian, I've only had to show my ID-card to the pharmacist and get my prescription, because my doctor has entered it into the e-prescription[1] system. Reading this thread definitely made me appreciate it a lot more.
