Didnt mean to hit yes. It's none of their business. Walmart has gotten bad about it. Work on dealing with the people that steal shit and leave the honest people you see at a register alone.

Sandra West

If you are an honest person there should be no reason not to think it's a good thing and if it will help customers save money in the long run I'm all for it! People who steal suck!

Sam Ackerman

Then you dont mind if we search your car or home then. I mean you have nothing to hide right?

If it cuts down theft and in return prices . . . YOU BET!

Terree Putman

Because they need to check that you even HAVE A RECEIPT-do not necessarily check items, just confirm a RECEIPT!!

I flat out refuse to "show my receipt" when leaving a store. If you feel some one is shop lifting then deal with them. other wise leave them alone.

Safe parking programs have a proven track record of successfully taking people from being homeless into having a place of their own. Safe parking programs cut down on costs to cities for ambulance calls, police calls, visits to emergency rooms and mental health crises that costs taxpayers money.

Duane Wyman

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?

People should not have to put up with annoying intrusive lights that inconsiderate neighbors install
