Re: Interesting Article about WALMART RECEIPT CHECKS..What are your rights?
If you don't like it, don't shop there. Problem solved.
 Quoting: Icey



And that's exactly what I'm doing....after a fucking scene at the door at the Portal to Hell.

I bought a gallon of milk and cat food. I walked towards the door and the lady asked me for my receipt. I could not find it.

The bitch asked me to stand aside. I said this is ridiculous, the people behind me were echoing the sentiment.

So, we went over to the register where I had self checked out, but someone had already checked something out and my receipt couldn't be recouped.

The two employees put their heads together and the women who made me stand aside said she didn't want to put me through a CSM....whatever that means, but it didn't sound pleasant.

She then said she'd let me go...like she was doing me a favor.

I went off on her....called her a fucking cunt, right there in the store. I was screaming. Lawdy, I was so pissed off.

I went out to the car and found the receipt. I took it back into the store, and the woman was LAUGHING as I stormed up to her, and put it up in her face. She wouldn't even look at it.

I threw it at her and told her she needed to frame it, because it was the receipt that would stop me from coming in the store ever again, four to five times a week. The cunt...and all that was after a run in with another extremely rude empolyee.

There are other stores, and those are the ones I'm going to use now.

Fuck Walmart, the Portal to Hell......huffy

To be honest, I'm more disgusted with the growing element of our society caused their reaction and will steal anything not screwed down, even off my private property.

And I'm equally disgusted with the ignorant or lazy or both who run over you entering the exit at WM and exiting the entrance.

Loss prevention is everything in sales. The receipt is the only thing keeping you from going to jail as A SHOPLIFTER!

They own the land, your standing on it, it is their rules.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76634753


I own the goods as soon as I've paid for them and I am under no requirement to prove that to the shopkeeper or anyone else. Possession is 9/10s of the law.


If you think I've stolen something, call the cops. You better be right, though, because stopping someone without cause is false imprisonment and the store can be sued for it.

Used the self checkout and forgot to scan my large TP. I'm glad they checked and I promptly went and paid for it.

I hear some stores in ghettos have everything behind the counter and an employee retrieves what you want. Places where people steal more than what they pay for.

The moment you pay for the items, they are no longer store property, but your property. Walmart is a private corporation. They have no right to search your belongings, no matter what their ignorant of the law employees think.

It's not a matter of the time, although in many areas people are waiting 15 minutes in aline to be checked, it is the relinquishing of hard won freedoms, which will be very much missed when gone.

This is what it is. This past holiday season was the worst. The local Barnes and Noble practically had all the expensive cool stuff ripped off. Harry Potter items, all the cool Japanese anime items. People just ripped open the boxes and took what they wanted.

And finally, they are not looking for random shoplifters. Most losses are from employee theft. They are checking your receipt to see if the cashier rang it up properly.

They lose millions from the cashier being in cahoots with the person checking out, ringing up $300 worth of items for $27.50

This is true.

There security is watching them on camera and making sure they are on the ball. If they don't check someone they hear about it in that little earpiece they are wearing.

Me and the old lady had separate purchases mine were in the bags in my hand and hers were in the cart. They checked my receipt and looked in the cart and said ok. They are usually just going through the motions.

Re: Interesting Article about WALMART RECEIPT CHECKS..What are your rights?
I get SO ANNOYED BY THESE CHECKS. Turns out there are very strict rules for determining probable cause for shoplifting. For the most part, legally you can say NO and walk on out. But my deeper question is, are we somehow being conditioned to accept these warrant-less searches? Is there some deeper agenda behind this other than shrink control? What are your thoughts? I know I hate to be a dick to a 75 yo making 10/hr but I'm getting sick of these searches personally. It just struck me though that perhaps it is more than Walmart trying to cut its losses from shoplifting.
