Target thief used self-checkout to steal over $60K in items over 120 visits to same store

Walmart near me in Kokomo, IN is now closing half of the self checkouts so store workers can more closely monitor them.

What kills me is seeing people come to the self checkout with shopping carts overfilled with items who then spend the next half hour checking out. The self checkout is for folks with 10, maybe 15 items tops. There's no way for store personnel to know if people with full carts are paying for everything unless they stand there and watch them, and the meantime countless other people are walking out with items not paid for. It's crazy.

WTF Target, those are your people. You “target” them specifically in your ads, why are you prosecuting this oppressed descendent of slaves. You should be ashamed!

I always laugh at the thought of self-checkout in stores.

How stupid can you be?

Our Constitution Self-Checkout was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government shopping of any other.
