Problem is, unless they actually check that you kept everything people will take advantage of something.
e.g. $100 off an HD-DVD player if you buy an HDTV...you'll have people that buy the HD-DVD player and the HDTV for the discount, and then return the HDTV and keep the discount

Problem with that is "most" stores will take off the discount if any part of the deal is broken..aka you bring back a item. Best buy is just not checking for this sort of thing I guess.
Case in point, one forum I looked at the kid tried to take back the hd dvd player and the guy at BB said that he would have to take the discount off too. The kid then asked if he could swith it for a blueray player instead, the guy said that was okay, the kid then took the blueray player to another best buy with the "clean" receipt and got his money back that way.
So that is just another loop hole incase they confront you on the issue, because apparently when the kid switched from the hd dvd to the blueray player, the receipt they gave him had no info that it was part of the "hd advantage" thing.
