There is no real 'out' door or 'in' door at best buy in matteson. Like most 
best buy's I've visited, there are just doors (I don't even recall them 
being marked). Now once inside the station where the 'inventory control 
person' sleeps divides the traffic such that one side is mostly in and 
one side is mostly out. And if I recall the layout in matteson correctly, 
the return desk is on the mostly 'out' side of the door guard station and 
one would naturally take that shortest path since going in the other side 
meant going the long way around the registers. 

Basically, it's you-had-been-there-and-done-this-before sort of situation 
the OP was in.
