re: Do you show your receipt

Policy is not law.

You're conditioned to think it is though.

I think you are being an arse assuming that I was rude to her..I asked if there was a problem and she decided to walk off..

If there is a line to show some old lady a receipt I ain’t waiting for that. Just walk past them.

"I'd rather they respect my privacy and not assume me a thief."

When checking receipts is done or attempted all the time when realistically possible based on traffic no one is assuming you are a thief. You sound paranoid.

Also as far as your privacy with your purchase in their bag you are probably stored on a video server for their security cameras with whatever you want private, cashier knows what you purchased, customer behind you knows what you purchased, another is probably posting to Snapchat or instagram with you in background purchasing them, and they will have a copy of receipt along with your payment info (minus full CC#). If you want privacy about the items you just purchased from the company you just purchased them from seconds ago while still on their property and in their building You might want to shift to Dark Web start using Tor along with some anonymous bitcoin and a PO Box. I hate tracking across sites by 3rd parties or sold to 3rd parties as much as anyone especially by Amazon, google, & Facebook, but you are asking for a privacy that didn't even exist before those companies were created.

Especially when exits are away from registers checking receipts is just an added deterrent that in some cases allows more product to be displayed on floor and not have to use a pull tag or have an employee walk it to a register. I have seen some catch things that benefit customer. If not paying for itself with less theft or other shrinkage they wouldn't use them. Less theft helps keeps prices low. Acting paranoid in stores and also posting this on indexed websites using 3rd party Ad tools is probably drawing more attention to yourself and more employees seeing what you are buying.

So many gullibles on this website.

Sad.

My white privilege just walks out.

jk

I have no problem with it.

I mean, bruh...is it really that big of a deal to take the 30 seconds or less that it takes to show the receipt? You literally spent more time arguing your point than it takes to just show the receipt.

---

Sometimes yeah.

I just walk out of the store like a normal human. If they ask to see my receipt I show them. I'm not going to cause a scene, but I'm not going to go out of my way to prove to them I purchased something. If they wanna chase me down in the parking lot and put their hands on me because I didn't show a receipt I'd be glad to be victimized by a multinational corporation.

I don't have problem with showing my receipt..But I do have a problem when I self checkout and a WM employee is giving me the look like I am stealing..I asked her if there was a problem and she just walked off...I don't put up with that crap.

---

Maybe he/she was making their presence noticed in case you need some assistance. I hate it when something does go wrong and I have to go looking for help at self-checkout.

I get asked nearly every time I walk out of WM. I just smile and keep going, and it's never been a forced issue.
Anyone stop or do you keep walking too.

---

I always hold my receipt in my hand at the potential. It's literally 5 seconds of wasted time.

Not sure what the issue is here.

Any establishment that requires me to show a receipt upon waking out is trashy. I don’t grace trashy establishments with my presence

While I won't ever possibly defend WalMart as being "not trashy", I would say that at least establishments that are doing this are trying to de-trash themselves somewhat.

Home Depot just lets you walk out with new power tools and tells you to enjoy the rest of your day.
