    I’m sure it depend on the area. Also Walmart has cameras with facial recognition so I personally wouldn’t want to try to rob them.

    Where I’m at there is also an exit check with a person that checks your receipt

      Legally speaking, walmart can ask to see your receipt, but since it’s not a membership store, or has it in their Terms and Conditions of purchasing goods there, they can’t stop you from just not showing it

          I do this as well. One day I was in a hurry on a lunch break and I was getting batteries and a sandwich, literally two items in a single bag. The person stepped in front of me and started to ask to see my receipt and I just snapped out “no thank you” but when they just stepped aside I realized there was no reason to ever let them and I havent since.

          I say sure, hand them the receipt (most of the time unless if there’s something I might need to return) and keep walking.

          All they asked was to see my receipt. They can look at it all they want.

        That’s what the illegally armed and outfitted off duty police officer at the front of the store is for.
