I had a Walmart security guard come after me for not showing the receipt when I walked past him. I had the receipt under my arm, pointed behind me, as I kept walking. He eventually grabbed the receipt and walked back to the store as I walked towards my car.
Once I put my shoes in the car, I went back to the store to ask the guard for my receipt. He had to dig through the garbage to find it.
I didn’t care about the receipt.
Costco, Sam’s club etc are clubs. You must verify your purchases. In Walmart you pay and get your receipt the cashier verifies your purchase and you leave. No need to have to check you again at the door unless they believe you stole something.
I hate the receipt checkers and if walmart gives self-checkout the option of emailed receipts that is their own stupidity.
This was a mess all the way around from walmart to the officer to the punk kid who caused it.
When walmart raises prices to offset shoplifting again then don’t bitch about the receipt people.
Take away self checkout and most of this issue goes away.
I always just so “no thanks... I’m trying to quit” then keep on walking.
