re: Do you show your receipt

I always show them. I would rather it be obvious from the start or obvious leaving register, but that's just more of a convenience in case I packed receipt in my Constanza filing cabinet and went without a cart while getting more than planned & then asked trying to carry out bags in both hands.

They just started doing this at my local Walmart. I’ve been asked once but the person gave up because I balled the receipt up into a small ball and threw it into one of the bags. She got tired of me searching each bag, I guess.

She wanted to scan the code on it to “put me in the system.” From now on, I won’t ball up the receipt but I will tear off the bottom portion that has the scan code and transaction number and destroy that. I’m concerned about identity theft. The receipt says “Customer Copy” so it’s my property to do with as I please.

Why the frick would you want to make their very low wage job even hammers hard? You’re probably poor as frick

Thanks, OP, for making some poor schmuck's shitty job even shittier.

The public would be better served by putting that poor schmuck at one of the 10 closed registers while the line is 8 deep at the two open registers.

I do, because lack of respect for personal property is becoming an epidemic and I want to help fight this. It's not a perfect approach to the problem but at least the receipt-checker is doing something.

Well you showed em. I hope you throw up a
Clinched fist when you defy “the man” by this incredible act of disobedience.



fricking idiot.

Unreal how many do this without thinking, whether they feel sorry for the WM worker, or that they are required to do so.
It's not about sticking it to the man, raging against the machine, or whatever inane reason people willingly go along with just cuz everyone else does it.
I buy something and walk out with it in a bag, I no more feel the need to show a door clerk its contents as I would what's in my wallet. Both are my property. Want to see what's in them, get a warrant.
I've never been stopped for keep walking and saying no thank you. People can stop if they want to, but I don't work for WM so their policies don't apply to me. I want to buy something and leave, and not be stopped for suspicion of stealing, which is exactly what checking receipts is supposed to be for.
Feel free to flame away... I'd rather they respect my privacy and not assume me a thief.

Sure. It takes a few seconds. The person asking for it didn’t make the policy. Don’t make their day miserable.

Only if I don't bag everything. Ive learned thru only ask if something isn't in a bag. So now I bag drinks and other things I used to not.
I tried using reusable bags but they check too much.

You've said this stupid shite several times in the thread while failing to mention you are on their property.
