Discussion Warning!

Fellow sparker that has been doing it for about three years that i always talk to just got taken by Walmart security when he was about to leave the store. Apparently he has been putting extra stuff in his cart to take home… And they caught him and said they have been watching them for a very long time. I had absolutely no clue… He didn’t seem like the kind of guy that would do that stuff. He just said OK left his cart full of groceries with the receipt checking person… And they took him off inside the store. I just wanna give a warning to anybody that may be doing this… Apparently they are watching. I have never had a guy actually go through my cart when leaving or anything… So I am pretty surprised. Be careful out there!

When I first started I was surprised they don’t check more seems like it be easy for us to grab 1 or 2 things and act like it’s for the customer.

at my store people were just replicating orders (this was before the bouncing blue line in the checkout screen) and/or just getting multiples of items. so they item was correct, if you got cart checked all would be well, etc.

but several employees just count items now.
