If you weren't trying to buy a bunch, I would definitely inquire. Maybe they've changed the rules and go by telephone numbers or something. If you really need sudafed, which is a wonderful decongestant, I'd suggest going to CVS or Walmart or even your local grocery store. You should be fine if you only need it for the occasional cold and are buying consumer-sized portions. Try some vitamin C too. That's stuff's still legal!
I am a pharmacy tech at the hospital here. I believe they are now having you sign a log every time you buy it to keep track, because people that do the meth will just buy a few boxes at this store then go on to the next one. But they should be able to show you a copy of the log, and to compare the writing to see if this is the same person.
