Sure-0k!

Ive never had my receipt checked at any local walmart and would consider it an insult if they tried.

So, what exactly do they do? take each item out of the bags and check them off on your receipt? I dont understand how that couldnt take quite a while.

They only ask if you have un bagged items. It’s their policy. Normally it’s an older person that is trying to supplement their SS . Why be rude to someone that is trying to work. Not their fault. But I guess some people just like being a horses butt in public. What did it cost you to show the receipt? Did it cause a brain bleed? Did the 10 seconds it took make you be late to claim your million dollar lotto ticket?
Just saying

This

The self checkout is a bi product of massive COVID layoffs. People don’t want to work!! If I got 2-3 items I love self checkout! Some of the comments don’t make sense. You will stand in line to use a cashier which takes longer. But gripe about the 30 seconds it takes to show your receipt to papaw at the door? Life is too short......
Local Lowe’s has ONLY self checkout now. Half are card only.

I can't remember having a receipt checked. But if they asked, I certainly would oblige. No reason not to. ...and if their procedures catch the occasional nefarious individual, I'm all for it.

I always have mine in my hand just in case. No need to stress folks out. Taught my son the same.

We agree on something. Thank you very much!

I’m aware it only takes a second or to. I’m also aware of why they do it. But, treating all of your customers like thief’s because a few are is incredibly rude. Most, if not all people would be offended if a small downtown hardware store or grocery store would do it. Not sure why the big stores get a pass for treating their customers like crooks.

Small downtown hardware store probably has a cashier. Usually checking you out right next to the exit. Entirely different scenario.

Funny how everyone one complains about thieves, but get indignant when a place tries to curtail some of them.

I don’t go to wal mart unless I’m at our winter house for a week or two. The only time I won’t stop is when they are forming a line for a 100% check. I’m not standing in line to wait for a person to search my cart for a specific item.

How about the case when the door checker watches you check out and still wants to see your receipt? It happens.

Lots of ways to curtail thieves without treating everyone like one.
Not to me.

The receipt typically has the number of products purchased on it. They compare that to what's in your bag/cart. If they match you're good to go.

No. I refuse to go into one. I do what I can to not support the Chinese communist.

I will stop in Walmart maybe once a month its right on my way from work. . Normally it's for a few items when I'm away at work like milk and breakfast food and cheese and lunch meat if I end up working several days more than I was scedualed and run out of what my wife cooked and packed for me.

Yes I walk right up to them to hand then the recipe I don't even water for them to ask. Why. Becust they are edging their job. It's a low pay thankless job and it's normally someone older needing the money or handy caped in some way.

It will not stop thefts. They just won't stop and act like they didn hear them or bolt out the door.

But I'm not going to be rude to the people doing that job. But it is why I always pick a printed recipe vs no recipe so I can show them. ..

Lots of change at our Walmarts , The people who came just for theft dont seem to be there anymore . At least not near as many ,
