Interesting Article about WALMART RECEIPT CHECKS..What are your rights?

I fondly remember the time I saw a cool cardboard display piece for one of my favorite brands.

Grabbed it, placed on the bottom of my shopping cart, checked out and walked out with it clearly there for all to see.

No one stopped me or questioned anything.

FUCK THIS KLOWN WORLD, I DO AS I PLEASE.

I don't like it, still shop there, and just walk right by these people.
You shop somewhere else mkay?

Walmart has legal right to request a receipt. The owner of the item has the legal right to refuse that request.

If they try to stop you without probable cause it's false imprisonment and possibly even false arrest.

Also, in most states they can't physically touch you unless they've witnessed you commit a felony. Not everywhere, though.

In other words, the only time they can demand proof of payment is when they already witnessed you stealing something. This even applies to Sam's Club. At best, if you refuse at Sam's Club they can terminate your membership (doubtful).

The only time I have seen them do this is if you have items on the bottom of your cart. They are checking the receipt to see if the items were scanned.

Sometimes people forget to put the items on the belt, other times the checker doesn't look at the bottom of cart and I have even seen checkers forget to scan the bottom of cart even after they were told items were there.

When they give you your receipt, put it in your mouth..hold it with front teeth. like your arms are too full to also have receipt at "hand".

If they want to look at it, they can take it from your mouth, wipe it down, ect.

I say, "No Thank You, I gave at the office", and walk past the stupid mother fuckers!

Yeah, it's crazy how those HDTV's get buried in your cart and missed during self-checkout, isn't it?

Theft hurts everyone including the customer. Receipts are scanned so if your receipt is lost, it prevents a thief from picking it up and going shopping with that receipt. It also prevents a theft from going 2-4 rounds of stealing the same products with one original purchase receipt at the same or multiple stores. Yes thieves pretend to shop with the original purchases receipt and pass it off as buying the said products again and again. Scanning receipts prevents this. Once a scanned receipt is in the system it ultimately prevents theft. It cuts down shrink and therefore also saves customers money because prices aren’t increased due to theft.

Yet don’t worry, for those that don’t want to scan their receipts attitude, in near future, you will be forced to order your products online, prepaid, and pickup your purchases at a warehouse hub. There will be no more going into a store. This is the future.

yes. When I dyed my hair bright pink, the liberal left junkies stopped checking my receipt. Dye your hair pink. They look the other way. Not.even.kidding.

The old retiree-age men still check the receipt, but only if you make eye contact.

Sams club is a membership store. If it is within the contract you signed, they have a right to do it.

You don’t always have the same rights on private property. My work can search me whenever the fuck they want without probably cause and that’s not necessarily because I signed some shit when I started. They can search vendors and anybody who enters the door if they want. They can have security throw you out the door regardless of whether you broke a law. They can spy on you record you etc

Do really think you have the same rights on private property or government property as you do on public property

Did you go back in and pay for it?
