Who hasn’t seen underage kids that look 75?
Kroger does the same. Takes away the cashier having to judge if a kid is 17 or 18 or whatever the legal age is.
Plenty of bars do it too.
Benjamin Button was busted for attempting to purchase alcohol at age 17.
He totally looked like a senior citizen.
I always question why my kids get carded at the restaurant and I don’t.
It’s not just Walmart, I’ve been card checked at quite a few airports in my days, even though my hair was completely gray and as you stated I could be the person’s parent or grandparent in some cases.
So don’t buy alcohol there. Plenty of other places.
I’d be flattered if they asked me.
No. It’s the law in many states. Why is presenting an ID an infringement? You really need to pick your battles. I am way beyond the legal age and it has never bothered me to show my ID. The only time I shouldn’t be required to show ID is to vote. /sar
i take it as a complement
i say bless your heart
my beard is over 21
At 79 still getting ‘carded’, rules are rules if you don’t like them shop somewhere else.
Dang! That’s no fun. I clicked just to read the comments.
This isn't Little Green Footballs, OK?
We're not always going to be in agreement with the topic, and we have the right to offer counterarguments.
That's not trolling or being disruptive, it's debate.
New Mexico has such strict penalties for selling alcohol to underaged people that many establishments have set rules that you must present photo ID no matter what your apparent age. It really is amusing sometimes. Annoying as well.
At mine all they do is scan their employee badge and select “NO” to “Does customer look under 40?”
You can get booze at Walmart???
How is it discriminatory?
What’s humiliating about it? Have a sense of humor. I always tell them “I only buy beer to get carded”. Too bad I can’t convince myself they do it due to me having a youthful appearence.
My lord if this is your biggest problem in life, count your blessings.
It’s what the law requires. The clerk and I always get a laugh at it
