I believe that if a sign is posted that warns shoppers before they buy that sales are subject to verification before exiting their store, they are perfectly within their rights.  Stores get to set the terms of the sale.  If they have that sign posted, and you purchase, you are agreeing to have your bag inspected.  If you do not, they can rescind the sale.  It's like a sign i the entry that says "No Pennies" or "No Cash Sales" - yes, you might be offering legal tender, but they can set the terms of the sale as long as it doesn't violate the terms of the UCC or are otherwise "unconscionable".

From a practical standpoint?  If you feel that strongly about it, just keep walking, they won't make a big deal.  And they cannot detain you physically. But they *could* call LEO for a complaint for theft and/or trespassing.

Not if its not a club and you have bought and paid for your merchandise.  Their rules til you own it.....that being said...Oh well just keep walking.  .5/10

  Yup, you're under no legal obligation to show your receipt, you completed the transaction in front of a store employee. It's YOUR property, not theirs. Period, end of story.

If they have reason to believe you stole something, they can (in some states) detain you. Otherwise, unless you signed an agreement to do this (Costco), just tell them politely "no thank you" and keep walking.

lol. No.

They can kick you out of the store and off their property for not letting them check your bag or receipt but once the merchandise is paid for they cannot rescind the transaction.

  Not as much as leaves by employee theft. Besides, receipt checking only prevents ONE type of theft, and a not-very-savvy one at that.


They don't scrutinize your cart, bag, belongings, they're mostly just checking the receipt generally matches the cart's containers and that it has a current (and recent date).


They're still getting robbed blind, it's a feel-good measure...and mildly insulting for honest people (or it should be).

Costco and Sams yeah because I agreed to it. Walmart or elsewhere lol no I just keep walking. FWIW at my local wal mart I only chose to ignore them after observing stupid practices. I.E. hassling people that are otherwise normal and look like upstanding citizens mean while turning away if some sheister walks by or person of color.  Sort of like the TSA lets not profile the people who need to be profiled instead lets fuck with grandma and her 5 year old grandson because we wouldn't want to be seen as racist.

It always amazes me how many people say here "you should obey costco policy because you agreed to it" and in other GD thread when it comes to concealed carrying the response is usually "fuck their rules, I can't read them at the door, concealed means concealed, shall not infringe, merica, etc"

Not my problem. Sounds like loss prevention needs to do a better job of you know.. PREVENTING.

This.


Part of the problem is that, legally, an item hasn't been stolen until the person has left the store without paying - just putting an item in your pocket and walking toward the door doesn't count.  So there's this (literally) small space between the checkout and the door where LP can apprehend a shoplifter and say "They were leaving without paying" and before they make it outside and bolt.

Yeah, it sucks.  There are always other stores at which you can shop.

Checking at the door actually helps the store deter shoplifting and helps keeps prices down.



What you don't realize is stores like Walmart lose almost $1 million or more dollars per store due

to shoplifting and it's getting worse because of lax enforcement.

Exactly, ownership is already established. I've never seen a sign like that, anywhere...certainly never anywhere that checks bags (although in my AO Walmart and Home Depot are the only two that have ever done it).

Considering Walmart is one of the principle "checkers" out there, and they're losing more to employee theft than shoplifters, and checking the receipt doesn't deter shit except receipt-scammers (which are just one type of shoplifters), I'd say they're twiddling their thumbs and doing nothing. Hell, it's even easy to scam the checkers, watched a shot on TLC about shoplifting and the pros were saying that making a fake receipt was easier than trying to sneak stuff out.

Great CoC violation there, nice going. Also, it's not their stores and their rules. Once you own something, by legal purchase, it is not the store's legal right to detain or search you, or make you prove you bought it. They can only stop you if they believe (under a legal criteria) that you have been stealing.




If you're going to go all insulty about something and run someone down, at least be right.

Yes, it's truly dignified going to a merchant you don't like and who you KNOW will do something you don't like at the exit just so you can save a buck or two over some other store or a couple of days over mail order.

I entered the store to conduct a business exchange.  I gave them money for their product, it is now my product.   I would find it fair, that they pay me to see my product now if they are so inclined.

The only thing left at that point is negotiating the price for them to see my receipt.

Once I pay for items in a store, they are my property, and it does NOT matter that I'm still in the store until I get out the door.

Further, I don't feel the need to prove it to anyone....certainly not to the min. wage douche at the door checking receipts.

I hate having to waste time stopping on my way out the door at HOMEDEPOT to show my receipt for MY PROPERTY.   There are many other stores that do this too.  If a store is having problems with shrinkage and theft, that's their problem and they should put in more cameras and/or more security.  But they're too cheap to do that, and try and make it the customers problem by wasting our time.    

Now COSTCO for example is a different story.  There, you've paid for a MEMBERSHIP, and are obligated to follow their rules as such...one of which is having your receipt door checked.

But HOMEDEPOT ?   Fuck them.   Back when I was single, I was dating a girl that got all pissy with me because she felt I disrespected the receipt checker @ the door by blowing by him and ignoring his request to SHOW MY PAPERS.

Discuss.  Poll inbound.

For the love of God...are you totally vapid or just being obtuse? Who do you think gets to pick up the fucking tab either way?

Stolen goods or increased loss prevention...it costs money that YOU get to pay for.

There's an old sayin' in the South about 'cutting' of your nose to spite your face'. Look into it.


And you believe that the receipt checker at the door is an effective loss prevention measure?

You have no idea how much shit just walks out the door, do you?



Not my problem. Sounds like loss prevention needs to do a better job of you know.. PREVENTING.

This.

Sure except it doesn't actually prevent anything. The rare times I did stop they gave a half ass glance IF that and made a line on my receipt with a fucking highlighter. They didn't check that a single thing matched the receipt that was in my cart or bags. In theory sure. But when its half ass executed by their own employees thats when I run out of fucks to give and keep walking. If you're going to do it , fine do it but do it correctly and consistently or else you're just wasting my fucking time.
