The day of the walk-in store is almost over. Present your ticket and the employee will retrieve it from behind a locked door through bulletproof glass.

Sort of how Service Merchandise worked. They didn’t have bulletproof glass though, but they went out of business in the 90s.

The Home Depot near me is getting like this. The small high ticket stuff is locked up. A clerk will unlock the cage to get it out, and then walk it to the cashier where you pay for it.

The merchandise is still in the store in a back room or warehouse area the thieves will just use the back door instead of the front. The days of brick and mortar stores are numbered, Amazon style mega warehouses and online ordering only are soon to be the new norm. IMHO

Borders, walls, locks, and bulletproof glass are racist!

:Gulp:

If I am paying that much for something I had better be able to drive it, live in it or shoot it.
