How many receptacles per branch?

Can anybody reference in the NEC where it says how many receptacles are allowed on a branch circuit. Our general rule of thumb here in PA is 7 per circuit. However the debate is ongoing at the local electrical distributor/coffee shop. (As I am sure that everyone experiences.)
