We have a large independent semi-gourmet grocery store where I live. It has good fish, meat and produce. I disputed that they had put item X into one of the plastic bags. They took me to the service counter where they said “Lets review the video”. I had never seen this before!. So we looked at the video of the cashier and me and sure enough I was wrong and they were right. It was on tape! When I checked my bags again in the trunk of my car, item X was there!
I never knew they had cameras at each cashier’s station. Sure makes it easier for them when a customer says they paid for something but it was not put in one of the shopping bag.

I worked retail for a few years, and eventually got to cashiering full time. I learned at that job, which I hadn’t before, that cameras are everywhere, and I mean everywhere! They’re above each cashier station, and then ALL OVER the store! Between all the different dishonest types out there, it’s an absolute necessity to ward off fraud and theft.
