There is a certain demographic they are really checking. They occasionally check people they know are not stealing to make sure it looks fair and they are not just checking certain types. They barely even glance at my receipt and I go along. They non-verbally are telling you what is up.

Our Walmart will only check your receipt if you are a mom and dad with kids.Everyone else gets to go through the door unchecked. Weird.
I also find it weird why cashiers always ask you if you want or need your reciept.Why wouldn't I ?

The Walmart near me only checks white people. I watched two black women leave the store with a cart full of items that were too big to be bagged. They never went through the register or paid for the items and told the guy at the door that they already threw the receipt away. There was a car that had the motor running waiting at the curd for them in case they needed a fast get away, lol.

If you live in a sanctuary state or scity, they can't check you if you're mexican, it's considered a hate crime punishable by death. Dye your hair brown, get a tan, put on a sumbrero, then they can't check you no mo.

Here's yet another 'don't follow the rules' thread.
I don't care what ya all do, I'm going to go by the store's policies. The ONLY reason you wouldn't is if you were doing something sinister.

I never stop to let them check my receipt, ive been doing exactly what the guy in the video said for the past 12 years. Act they like are offering you a service you don't want and say no thank you and just keep going. I did have a black haitian receipt checker at a walmart in delraybeach FL freak out a little because of this and kinda expected to get harassed in the parking lot but nothing came of it. I just went home

All the trolls attacking this thread. Lol!

As if it's perfectly OK to be 'guilty-till-proven-innocent.'

The guy makes a valid point.

Immediately after you purchase items from a store ...those items now belong to you.

They are now your personal property

Showing a receipt is similar to unreasonable search and seizure of private property

They own the store and you choose to shop there, show your receipt if they ask or don't shop there.
 Quoting: GA Girl


Once you pay, you own the goods. You owe them nothing. And, if you have not broken any laws, it's unreasonable to stop and search.

This bullshit mentality you are spewing for corporate overlords is exactly why this country is fucked.

The constitution mandates that certain rights are INALIENABLE, not to be ceded to any one for any reason. These rights are under constant assault.

Guarantee if all of US boycotts Wal Mart on Black Griday, shit will change.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76018546


You have an implied contract when entering the store & possibly making a purchase. In exchange for that purchase, you prove who you are (if paying check or some forms of card), that you have the money to purchase, and that you purchased the goods prior to leaving the store with the goods.

If you do not want to show a receipt, shop somewhere which does not require it.
 Quoting: GA Girl


LMAO! What a fucking idiot.

Implied contract?

You have one with me to kiss my ass. Get started or I'm taking you to court for $200.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75859000


Have you NEVER heard of implied contracts? The law will side with a store when a customer enters and refuses to pay for goods, when they ask to see ID or receipt. At the very least, you could get ejected and told not to come back.

They cannot legally hold you or prevent you from leaving the store, if they do they can be sued.

However, I suggest exercising patience and kindness and self control and wait and show them and go on. No need to be an ass and ruin someone's day just because your own life sucks.

 Quoting: GA Girl


You are confused. There is no such thing as an implied contract, contract law states that 2 parties must agree to terms, and that no one can enter another party into a contract without their permission.

An EXPRESS contract, which you are probably thinking of, is one that is made on the spot, such as a verbal agreement.

A private property owner could have terms of service that is agreed upon by entering the facility but they must have a notice easily viewable that by entering the facility the person agrees to their TOS, which Walmarts do not.

It doesn't bother me. Less theft equals lower prices. If it gets to be too intrusive I will shop elsewhere.
 Quoting: Nuke Dukem


Yup. I was carrying out a big quilt with no bag. I showed my receipt without them asking because I’m not going let them think I’m stealing it. Too much theft is going on and I’m not putting them in the position of asking me for a receipt.

That's f'n right, OP.

The first time they tried that sh*t with me at Wally World on my lunch hour, I said, "F-this. I'm returning it all." and then went over to customer service and returned everything (groceries) in my cart.

I don't stop for these receipt police. Ever.
 Quoting: Interested_1


I did the exact same thing.

Once you have tendered payment every single item in your cart is yours and the receipt is too.

My new policy is to say "sure you can but I charge ten bucks for the privilege, got ten bucks?"

I won't comply because the poor retailer might lose money if we don't bend over for them. If you choose to be a retail store, you better be prepared to lose some items to theft. but don't shake me down because of it. I've never stolen anything and resent being shook down. Everyday, someone in gubment or private business pushes you a bit more, to see if you will comply with whatever their little hearts desire. I'm old enough I remember when customers were treated with respect, not like some shitbird. You all can lower your standards, I will not.

Wan Mart takes pics everywhere in store. In some states they are filing criminal charges and getting warrants for people at self checkouts whose face can be associated with an account number and tracked. People who had problems and no one to help them.

They get a traffic stop and find out they have outstanding warrants from a fucking faulty check out at Wan Mart.

Google it.
