I try to go when theyre distracted. When I first visited Lawrenceburg, TN I was accused of stealing a self check out ethernet cord. I threw the receipt out after passing the gates. She wanted me to dig through the trash. I couldnt find it. She had me walk in and check with the self checkout person. At least the self check out persons face seemed to agree with my mind: this is ridiculous. I was then lectured to keep my receipt. Later on they didnt check in my rug doctor. Rug doctor almost filed a credit report. Lectured me to keep a receipt. That Walmart is the worst, possibly the town too - though I do tend to keep receipts now. Probably shoukd keep reciepts to be fair. Not for that as much as incase you gotta return something. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"

Its not a security measure. Theyre not looking for shoplifters, lol. The checkers are there to make sure everything rang up right and that you got the sale price on everything. Theyre not searching your bags.
Or at least thats the stores official explanation. The truth is that someone just standing at the door probably does deter some would be shoplifters. But the old lady at the door isnt trying to bust criminals. Lol. --- END OF LINE ... Copied to Clipboard!

I guess I "fit the profile" of a shoplifter. Now that I'm older I get left alone. Even though one of the highest rates of shoplifting is actually in middle aged women.

Theyre not searching your bags. Ive been held up before because I had a highly shoplifted item and for whatever reason my recipt didnt print. Was just a blank slip of paper. Guy was like 6 ft 1 though not the proverbial door greeter but hes the main one at this local walmart. Or was ratther until they got rid of them. No they cant stop you but in order to write it off they gotta file a police report iirc. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"

It's a decent loss prevention mechanism that helps keep prices low, my dozen seconds inconvenience is worth it imo. Not really understanding why anyone has such problems with something so simple, if you haven't stolen anything there is nothing negative that can come of this

As i said earlier at my walmart they got rid of them and shoplifting skyrocketed immediately. They can't physically stop people but it does deter people I guess because the door greeter will have seen you walk out the door with the shit and be able to give a better description than what camera footage could. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"

mattnd2007 posted...Banjo2553 posted...Honestly, at the store I work at, they check the receipts for anyone who doesn't have stuff bagged. They don't profile anyone unless there's someone being obviously suspicious (walking in covered in dark clothes and a backpack, which happens frequently).Best buy is one place that really sticks out in my memory. They followed me so closely I felt guilty and I hadn't done anything wrong. How do you treat customers like that. Shit is fucked up.

If I have something outside of a bag or a simple small thing and I'm asked it's usually ok.
This way they can see the unbagged large item in the cart was indeed paid for and I'm not just slipping out with a small item I snuck into a bag. Other than that it depends on my mood and if they ask. I don't walk up to them, but usually they just want to see I have one in the first place. ... Copied to Clipboard!

One thing thats bugs me about some walmarts getting rid of them is despite being a shitty company in several ways it was still a nice job for a elderly person who wasnt good for much else anymore but still needed the extra income.

If I have something outside of a bag or a simple small thing and I'm asked it's usually ok.I always keep my receipt in my hand from when I check out, because I do use the self checkout as 9 times out of 10 its faster. Mutiple times I am buying a flat of Gatorade, case of water, 30 pack of beer, capri sun 3 packs, so none of that is ever bagged. And that's like the only thing they check and most times they only scan one time and let me go. Or just wave me on as I get close. If you are already prepared and accommodating then most times you won't even get stopped. It's honestly beyond me that people in this thread are being so insufferable about such a minor inconvenience. --- I think I need a drink.

God you guys are so entitled. Youre nothing special. Just let the dude do his fucking job After I pay for the stuff at the checkout, it becomes my property (and that includes the receipt). They're not getting their hands on it, especially when they have no reason to suspect me of stealing anything. Now, if they were to make you sign an agreement that you show your receipt on the way out (as CostCo does for their membership) then that would be different. But for now, if any Walmart employee wants my receipt then they can come and take it. I'm not handing it over of my own free will. --- There's no business to be taxed. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I've never had anyone ask to see my receipt. There are usually employees in the self check out area who I assume are watching for people trying to shoplift but they have never said anything to me during or after check out.

The only time normally I ever stop is if I'm buying a case of beer. It's not bagged, and I could definitely imagine someone just walking out and taking it. But the last time I did, I handed the guy the receipt and just said "keep it" and kept walking. He then tried to ask me if he could scan the beer, which was quite irritating. No, you have eyes, ding dong.
There's no benefit to stopping. What if you actually forgot to scan something? They don't let you just go back and pay for it, they'll have police waiting there. --- Snipers don't shoot at paper, they shoot watermelons. https://imgur.com/jo511lG ... Copied to Clipboard!
