One time I scanned the wrong barcode at a self check for a package of 2 Ribeye and it rang up $1.22 instead of like $18.69 so I called the attendant over to look at the error and he says looks correct to me and placed it in the bag and walked away with a grin.
This happened to me a few years ago around Thanksgiving. Walmart accidentally used a chicken barcode on whole frozen turkeys. I ended up buying four 20 pounds turkeys for $23 and I gave them away. I showed a clerk the price just to make sure I wasnāt going to get in trouble. They said āOh well, someone messed up, Happy Thanksgiving!ā And let me leave.
Me too!
I'm imagining her walking down the sidewalk with the canvas on the hood of the stroller & the paints and brushes jiggling in the cup holder. She's just out randomly stopping to paint people & nature things.
Damn imagination.
Eta- and I just woke up. lol
I admire your convictions, integrity has been a forgotten art form in recent years. BUT, there is such a thing as saying, 'O Well', when said accidental episodes occur. Do you happen to live in the Walmart parking lot? I personally don't condone thievery of any kind, but if I accidently brought home a bag or two of free shit, I would suddenly feel the need to say 'O Well'. I am not turning around with my kids screaming their little heads off, chasing them down every single isle to go back. If it was a locally owned mom & pop store, then I certainly would go back and make it right, regardless of how fucking bad the kids are, they are much more deserving of my principles than a Walmart.
I used to steal on purpose when I was a kid. I grew outta that. But one time in my twenties I put a sheet set in my cart and we were walking around the store, I took off my coat at some point. Anyway in the parking lot I put my coat on and found the sheets lol I was so embarrassed. But they were cute.
$13 an hour aināt worth the argument tbh. I totally see why you would do it and honestly Iād do it too. The confrontation isnāt really worth it considering a billion dollar company is losing practically pocket change.
Thatās like when I worked at DG as a cashier making minimum wage and they expected me to argue and report penny shoppers. Well, if you cleaned up the store and properly put stock in the right place then they wouldnāt find all that sh*t.
So after a certain period of time old items that were meant to be sold or taken off the shelves but werenāt are automatically changed in the system to only cost a penny.
These can also include discontinued or seasonal items. There are Facebook groups for it. Technically if a penny shopper comes with the items we had to sell them but then immediately go and find any remaining items, which there never would be any left. I learned from talking to other associates that some stores wouldnāt do this and were told to just refuse sale. Those items would then be thrown away or destroyed to avoid people dumpster diving.
At dollar general, when a season ends, some seasonal items get discounted to a penny (or a couple cents). Penny shoppers go around scanning items to find what costs a penny and buying all of it. People would leave with a cart full of stuff for a couple bucks. At my dollar general the manager didnāt really care though.
same with Claireās. people will come in and shop mainly in the clearance and purchase something from the Easter holiday in summer, it goes down to one cent lmao i love ringing them up and telling people āoh! this is only a penny!ā

Otherwise u spend the rest of your life having nitemares about shoplifters outwitting you at the exit. I still do, 20 years after my last retail job! Absolutely. Not. Worth.it!
I did something similar at my old job. I wasnāt supposed to work the register, yet I was always put on the register. So when customers came through Iād āaccidentallyā not scan things. The nicer they were the more Iād let go. Iād also do it if I was busy, and just wanted to get people through as fast as possible. And with the homeless people that came in. They never got much because they didnāt have much, usually just some snacks and water and such. Hopefully it helped them get some more food or even a beer or cigs later.
We also had a system where we put our own tags on some things, and if something didnāt scan, Iād find the cheapest item I could that was similar and put that tag on it. One lady got so excited to get a small craft set thingy for like 10 cents.
This company is vehemently anti union and forced us to watch a video about how āunions are badā before we started working. So fuck them š¤·āāļø
When I worked for Gymboree they would expect us to chase after shoplifters. We were located in a massive outlet mall in a large city. There were actual gangs of shoplifters that worked around the city and had been on the news for shooting at mall cops, etc when running away. I never said I wouldnāt do anything to my bosses but you can bet I never went after a shoplifter. No chance Iām risking my safety over tiny T-shirts. Companies really give zero fucks about their employees.
I worked at Barnes and noble and part of our training was to let people steal if they didnāt immediately stop when the sensor alarms went off. Basically that itās not safe to follow someone outside the store and they were more concerned about employee safety than someone taking a book
One time at Walmart I had a pencil case box with 100$ worth of tiny tiny items. I went to a person who was working the register and only had 3 or 4 other items with the pencil box. He scanned the box and I told him it had a bunch of other items in it. He just threw it in the bag and said I donāt care and I paid 97Ā¢ for it 100$ of merchandise. It was awesome.
personally i think Sam would be rolling over in his grave if he saw what his store turned into. its a joke now days, they use to be cool stores but have turned to crap. they have a lot of old people working there and handicap which is great but from what i have heard (personally and first hand) they pay them crap
I dont advocate stealing at all, but at some point there are just some things that a billion dollar corporation can afford to over look. A roll of toilet paper is not going to be a death sentence to the business survival of walmart.
My uncle, who served in the army his entire life once told me this when I was starting my company.
"An organization which cares for its people breeds people who cares for the organization.
I don't blame you, frankly. Self checkout is just straight corporate greed, making the consumer work for the company without pay. It doesn't make it cheaper for the consumer, just more profits for Walmart. I won't shop there and they deserve to be robbed.
They have their place when they are optional, for sure. With one cashier working one line for an entire super Walmart, self checkout isn't functionally optional.
I've been in a Walmart about three times since they switched to mostly self checkout. Twice I wheeled my cart up to self checkout and looked lost until an employee rang it up for me. The last time was with my young son and I just let him do it because he thought it was fun.
lol one time i was going through checkout w my toddler in the cart. my cashier was a teenage guy, on my left side.
the woman working at the checkout on my right side noticed my daughter, greeted her, said she was cute, and offered her a little sleeve of oreos as a treat and said they were free.
i thanked her and looked in my bag to get my card ready to pay for the rest of my stuff. the woman turned her attention away and the teenage cashier took the cookies from my daughters hands and put it to the sideā¦ and stood there just looking at me.
i was like ???? i told him the other cashier said she could have them, i wasnāt trying to steal. the woman turned around and berated the boy to give my toddler the cookies and, ādonāt you charge her for those!ā
Similar, but still goes on "confession" -- When I worked at Kroger, we were supposed to stop people stealing, physically. People would load up a cart and go out the entrance.
I never stopped them. I didn't see it often, but it was fucking food, man. I always wondered what lengths I would go to if I had a hungry child at home, and while you just don't know when you see people... I didn't act. Stealing food.
i read on one of the subs here that walmart donate to food banks, foods that are no longer safe or edible to eat because they are way way beyond their expiration dates.
I steal from that shitty bajillion dollar company all the time. Or I will go to the clearance isles and racks and snag a bunch of price tags that are like $.50-$5.00 and stick them to high priced items. And then I'd use the walmart app to scan and go, then at self checkout I'd transfer all my items over to the machine and pay cash. Then put my stuff in bags, by taking the bags off the holder and not putting them into the bags with the scales underneath while they are still on the holder because it will calibrate all the items rang up to weigh a certain thing and if that weight doesn't match what is in the bags on the scales then the transaction gets flagged and a random item or two has to be scanned by an associate. Where I live our self checkout associates are nazis and really love their job and Walmart. They don't even realize how shitty they are being treated and how they can get a better job for $10 more with way better benefits. I steal at least $100 or more, but will pay for like 20 of the items every time.
When I was a cashier at a grocery store if I didn't know the code to produce I would just make a scanning motion and toss it in the customers bag. No one checked receipts, and I didn't want to make a huge deal of finding a manager to get the correct code. I had a lady get mad at me for not charging her for lemongrass, held up the line a good 5/6 minutes while I ran around the store trying to track down a manager to get the correct code then everyone was pissed.
Srsly. $13/hr mini mart cashier here who recently had a long line while working alone and one bitchy regular thought she was giving me an education (or something) when she told me that people had been walking out with stuff while I was helping the customers in front of me. I wanted to clap back and say āOh, well let me put on my badge and grab my shotgun and chase them down. BRB.ā Like, WTF do you think Iām going to do? Instead I took the higher road and said weāll look at the cameras. Whatevs.
I used to work at Walmart and was in the self checkout and I let a young father steal a huge box of size 1 diapers. At Walmart we had little devices so we could see in real time what was being scanned at what checkout machine. At Walmart the door greeters technically donāt have the authority to keep you in the store once youāve checked out and cannot force you to show a receipt. I was scolded for ānot noticingā because the man refused to show his receipt but honestly not ashamed to have helped him out he made sure his kid was good no matter the cost.
Iāve done it myself but most of the time, I didnāt have a choice. When you canāt feed your family all week, you do what you have to do to get by. I use the reusable bags. If I only have a few things, I would hold my bag and only scan a couple cheap things and not scan the rest. Iām not saying itās right but Iāve done it. A lot of people would probably agree.
Look, coming from a former Walmart employee, we get paid ass to do asinine work. For a company that doesnāt care about us and they rake in over 600 BILLION in a year. Youāre fine, the poor billionaires arenāt going to feel anything because you didnāt hound an old lady for some damn cranberries.
Any idea if they share the info on repeat shoplifters across several stores? Like if you spread your stealing across several stores, would that make it less likely youāll be caught crossing the felony threshold?
Dam wish i could have gone thru ur line!!!
Literally every single time i shop at walmart i am over charged by 1 to 2 items and have to go to customer service yo get refunded.
Walmart steals from me so im glad you did what you did.
Always check ur walmart receipt for errors
During back-to-school season a few years ago, I was working retail and every once in a while whenever I saw a family buying new clothes and supplies for theirs kids I would āaccidentallyā scan an item incorrectly and toss it in their bag. I think mom and dads deserve a break every once in a while.
I realized the front door people didnāt know the codes when I bought my twins a kiddie pool & they told me I didnāt pay for it & I pointed at the first scanned item on the receipt.
All they look for is stuff not in bags plus thereās no way to remember 1000ās of abbreviated items. Itās almost a no brainer to just label it on the receipt as something you could identifyā¦. Someone just got lazy about typing out the whole words for some reason
Fuck Walmart, fuck how they treat their employees, and fuck how they put small local stores out of business.
You're a hero. Some of those people might have been seriously struggling while Walmart rakes in the millions. I have no sympathy for any "shrinkage" problems Walmart has.
One time we were at Albertsons getting some necessities and buying an expensive allergy medicine. ($20-30 for one item was extremely expensive to us at the time) and the guy couldn't get it to ring and he just tossed it in a bad and said 'Just take it. I hate this job so much, it's a hell hole'
I felt bad because I was an accomplice to stealing but we were really struggling at the time.
Idk if that was the Lord or not š¤
I mean isn't that policy for most big franchise retailers? If someone is stealing something, just let it happen and file a police report. If its at the self checkout and it has an auto report system with an AI, you're not doing anything wrong or insidious even not calling the cops then because it's a problem that works itself out. Can't be blamed if someone found a way to cheat the system or it doesn't work
Thank you. you are an angel! If they want great loss prevention they gotta pay more for that. NOBODY is going to care for your business the way you would, and if you want that, you gotta pay for that treatment.
I used to do the same at my old job, didn't get paid enough to care about people stealing and to be honest, if they did it wasn't really over $30 which a big company can afford to lose out on
I've accidentally stole on accdient. Evrytime I put something at the bottom of the cart mostly waterbottles, I'd always forget to scan them for some reason. I try not to get so much to where I have to put something at the bottom now.
At Petsmart (where I spend a fortune) I handed the cashier a coupon for a free Halloween pet costume that had expired the day before. She made such a commotion over it that the mgr came over & told her to accept it. On my way out I told her that while itās admirable sheās looking out for the financial well being of a multi-billion dollar company, they didnāt give a shit about her & she was just a part of the system they exploit for profit. Itās not worth her arguing with a customer to save the company $9.99. Corporate greed
A had a friend whose mom was caught stealing from Walmart. In court they added several more counts of theft on her because they had video of her stealing several times in the self checkout. All those times she thought she had gotten away with it came back to bite her in the ass because she never counted on them having video. Also we live in a very small town, the next closest Walmart is about an hour away making it a sure bet that the locals will always be back.
While I disprove of your doing that I do agree that retail stores get away with way too much. They do not hire many full-time employees. The reason for that is simple. Part time employees do not get benefits. They also do not pay very much. Retail stores like this benefit indirectly from welfare programs for their workers because it is the only way those workers can survive.
Walmart has cameras and knows people steal. They build a large enough case on them when they have stolen at least X amount of goods before getting police involved. When there is a minimum amount stolen the crime is considered a felony versus misdemeanor.
So it doesn't matter you didn't stop the crime. Walmart will catch them if they keep stealing.
I fucking hate self checkouts. I never use them unless I have no choice, even if it means I have to wait. Iām not working for these companies as their free cashier. The last time I used self checkout at Walmart, I accidentally left a bag because the little table is so small I had to Tetris everything on it. The bag got pushed in a corner and I didnāt notice. I even called the store later to see if it was there and of course it wasnāt.
Having integrity is one of the highest forms of being a human especially when no one is watching. No one forced you to accept a low paying Job, if you accepted it, it is on you to honour that contract. Stealing is still stealing, whether you steal a cent or a zillion.
Yeah but I wasnāt hired to stop theft, only assist with customers having issues with the machine. Thereās a whole other dept for theft and loss and they are paid substantially better. Iām putting myself through college, not making a career in retail. Itās not my fault if people steal, I just choose not to do anything about it. Also because the world is a different place than it was 20 years ago. Itās crazy, workers at Walmart now have to take a class on active shooter eventās because so many shootings happen at Walmarts. Iām not putting my life in jeopardy if some one gets irate that I caught them stealing a $5 item. I live in an open carry state so people be carrying the guns, if you know what I mean.
I get people are hard up, but stealing is shitty. Thatās too bad that you had a job where you have to let people steal to be safe. Get rid of self checkout. A lot of those problems would be solved.
If the Walmart closes due to excessive thefts and no profits, it will just close, creating a food dessert. Thatās what happened to 3 Walmart grocery stores on the south side of Chicago. The communities there were complaining why these stores were closing and now where will they go get their damn food and medicine for old people.
walmart didnāt provide an exact reason. Walmart just said they didnāt turn up a profit in the last few years. But people were saying because of excessive thefts. But the community donāt protests about the excessive thefts, they allow it. Well. Just drive father or take the train farther to go to other grocery stores.
Or or or, you could have a smart response to this and say "why are the pressures to steal greater than the pressure is to pay." Then you can start to address issues like corporate inflation and greed that are making paying for groceries fucking impossible for a lot of Americans. Of course people are stealing, are they going to starve? Are they going to watch their families starve?
Walmart, amongst others in this hellish system we call the free market, have made this problem for themselves. They prioritized short term profits and let the communities they disrupted be damned
If you are hungry, if you are struggling, steal from big grocery stores. As a long time food shoplifter there is little dignity in stealing but there is less in starving
I do not believe that Walmart hasn't turned a profit that is the biggest crock of shit I have ever heard any ppl are naive if they believe these corrupt corporations
Aren't Walmarts closing now in several locations due to the level of shoplifting? I seem to recall reading about this.
So now not only do all the people who work there lose their jobs, but the people who live in that area lose their Walmart. Oh well, I guess they can all shop at the nearest Nordstrom instead.
Closing of stores is nearly never due to loss due to theft.
That amount is already calculated into operating costs.
They will sell that story to create a false narrative to make them the giant corporation look sympathetic.
"Itās much more convenient if we can blame it on people we already consider reprehensible,ā he said
https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/18/business/retail-shoplifting-shrink-walgreens/index.html
"Itās also easier for companies and the public to blame theft for store closures and retail struggles than admit storesā over-expansion, strategy mistakes and customers abandoning stores for online shopping"
I work at a Walmart. Each year we get a shrink budget (I believe our store's is $5 million this year), and when inventory rolls around and they do the counts, we find out how much we actually lost. You would be amazed at how much shrinkage comes just from damaged merchandise. Just the other day we had to throw out around $50k in frozen goods due to multiple coolers breaking.
He's just as guilty as the guy stealing.
And whether he gets "paid so little" is irrelevant. I'm sure if you checked his job description it doesnt include helping people steal. And for that matter, his level of remuneration comes down to him. If you want to earn more, you need to have a skill that pays more. That's his responsibility.
Yes. Shrinkage is a cost of doing business and a certain amount is priced into the goods. So by stealing prices go up for everyone.
But if it increases to the point where the company can't pass it on to customers or can't make a sufficient profit to make keeping the location open, they will close.
OP and his beneficiaries are selfish lowlifes.
It's crazy how you identify more with Walmart than the people struggling to afford groceries. The people you call lowlifes have a lot more in common with you than the stores, and if they don't then I hope your stuff gets redistributed too
You like to play the victim card don't you. It's pathetic.
If you can't afford groceries, that's no-one's fault but yours. The world doesn't owe you or anyone else a living. Suggest you learn a skill that pays more. It takes work and paying your dues. If you don't want to do that, well, is it really a surprise that you make minimum wage?
It's crazy that people here are rationalizing outright theft.
"Here is a product. For $6 (lower than anywhere else), you can have it"
"Nah I'll just take it"
Criminal simps: "Woohoo!!!!"
And the overall point is that the more is stolen the more walmart has to charge for products to everyone. So OP and the villians he helps are actually ripping off honest customers.
Lol you just called moms stealing diapers villains. I'm not trying to change your mind, you're clearly a POS who will get his. If I was such an un-empathetic douchebag I'd be worried about common people getting uppity too
Those people are thieves and you are an immoral person.
It's not surprising that you couldn't find a job for more than $13 per hour.
"Shrinkage" is a cost of business that affects pricing of every product. By stealing or allowing theft you are basically putting a tax on every honest person to the benefit of you and every thief.
The Walmart pays no taxes now who's the thief?
I have never and never will shop at Walmart. They're the among the first to take hundreds of thousands of jobs and contractors away from USA into China for cheap labor and no benefits. You're late to Walmart fascism ways. Top 5 billionaire in the world š off the backs of poor people š¢ they have no intentions of paying a living wage.
STOP SHOPPING at Walmart target CVS etc Amazon until they pay their fair share of federal taxes allow laborers to form unions and pay a living wage.
STOP SHOPPING except for necessity!!!
It's not surprising they couldn't hire someone better for so little. If they cared about shrinkage, they'd pay more, but they did the calculations, and decided it's more economical to let people get away with occasional theft than to hire honest people at an honest wage.
Pass on this. Companies have been squeezing every penny from employers, employ slave labor unions and sweat shops to make their products unethically. Walmart used to openly tell their new employees to apply for state benefits at hire to make up for their lack of wages and benefits. That is directly a tax in all citizens, and no one gets an opportunity to prevent it.
Toe the societal line if you like, but these companies have victimized people for profit for decades for profit. Youāll pardon me if I shed no tears at them being ripped off from time to time
Feeding your family and yourself is the right thing to do. You sound like a person who has been blessed to never be forced to make a truly hard decision
Growing up in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina I saw black "looters" getting shot for taking diapers and food from destroyed stores and white "refugees" or "survivors" get praised for the same thing. It's not as simple as morals, you should try to understand that for many poor Americans it is a struggle to stay alive and healthy, due in no small part to poor access to affordable food
Itās called work. There is plenty of it out there. And how TF would you know if Iāve struggled. I made the truly hard decision to get my ass up and out to work everyday. I donāt feel entitled to other peoples property.
You haven't struggled yet but ,Allah willing, the revolution will come and you can toil in the gulag
On a serious note tho, there aren't a lot of high paying, or even moderately paying, jobs. You are providing a non-answer so I will give you a non-answer and say stop being such a bootlicker
I worked at Walmart for years and one time after work I was completely zoned out and got a drink from the cooler by the self checkout and completely forgot to ring it up and drank it outside and no one said a damn thing to me. Afterwards I suddenly thought, wait I should've paid for this. Maybe AP noticed but didn't care cause it was just a $1.50 chocolate milk.
I've always referred to Walmart as "the warehouse of free shit" lol when I was 15 for a solid year me and my best friend that was living with me because he got kicked out would go to walmart once or twice a year and just fill a cart with like 4 cases of beer and just walk on out did that for a solid year only ALMOST got caught once stopped at door for receipt said we'd go get it from the register and just went out the door on the other end
I hate to say it but I think it's time we all started taking things when we shop and donating the "freed" items to food banks. Supermarkets will employ more security staff in response, lock more stuff away etc, but there are ways round it which I suspect redditors will share..
I'd advocate the same for petrol stations too - though harder to get away with there I suppose
No it's not nice, it's not "right", it is however morally justifiable.
Thank you for sticking up for the little guy bc u know rich folks do t shop at Walmart (not all) but itās the little guy that shops there bc we have to
When I was younger I used to go to the womenās purse section, get a large purse, carry it around like itās mine and fill it with more stolen things and then walk out lmao
I work at McDonaldās. I give people get free stuff all the time. I just graduated highschool and Iām about to go into the military so I donāt feel like getting yelled at by people. Iām already going to have to be yelled at enough in bootcamp
Used to??!! You better start letting them do it again god damnit!! Fuck Walmart!! Cocksuckers raised theyāre prices when they didnāt need to, besides all their beef is that cloned genetically modified crap, or havenāt any of you noticed that Walmarts beef tastes funny? Now google does Walmart sell genetically modified cloned beef. Like I said fuck walmart!!
One time I scanned the wrong barcode at a self check for a package of 2 Ribeye and it rang up $1.22 instead of like $18.69 so I called the attendant over to look at the error and he says looks correct to me and placed it in the bag and walked away with a grin.

This happened to me a few years ago around Thanksgiving. Walmart accidentally used a chicken barcode on whole frozen turkeys. I ended up buying four 20 pounds turkeys for $23 and I gave them away. I showed a clerk the price just to make sure I wasnāt going to get in trouble. They said āOh well, someone messed up, Happy Thanksgiving!ā And let me leave.
you wouldn't download a walmart
I would
We found the hacker.
I wouldn't, but OP wouldn't stop me if I did
When I was younger I would give people free store items at checkout. āOh you like that one? Well its on me!ā I never paid for it lol
This shit is so funny

It is surprising what cashiers wonāt notice, really. If you act like you own it (even unintentionally) theyāll rarely question it.
And here I am super nervous when I have a CVS product that I own in my bag when I walk into CVS.

I admire your convictions, integrity has been a forgotten art form in recent years. BUT, there is such a thing as saying, 'O Well', when said accidental episodes occur.

I am not turning around with my kids screaming their little heads off, chasing them down every single isle to go back. If it was a locally owned mom & pop store, then I certainly would go back and make it right, regardless of how fucking bad the kids are, they are much more deserving of my principles than a Walmart.
I used to steal on purpose when I was a kid. I grew outta that. But one time in my twenties I put a sheet set in my cart and we were walking around the store, I took off my coat at some point. Anyway in the parking lot I put my coat on and found the sheets lol I was so embarrassed. But they were cute.
$13 an hour aināt worth the argument tbh. I totally see why you would do it and honestly Iād do it too. The confrontation isnāt really worth it considering a billion dollar company is losing practically pocket change.
Thatās like when I worked at DG as a cashier making minimum wage and they expected me to argue and report penny shoppers. Well, if you cleaned up the store and properly put stock in the right place then they wouldnāt find all that sh*t.
Penny shoppers?
So after a certain period of time old items that were meant to be sold or taken off the shelves but werenāt are automatically changed in the system to only cost a penny. These can also include discontinued or seasonal items. There are Facebook groups for it. Technically if a penny shopper comes with the items we had to sell them but then immediately go and find any remaining items, which there never would be any left. I learned from talking to other associates that some stores wouldnāt do this and were told to just refuse sale. Those items would then be thrown away or destroyed to avoid people dumpster diving.
F that. Clearance that shit for a reason and reduce reuse recycle they are claiming the loss on taxes anyway so why would the manager give a shit.
I know! I just never said anything, it was always funny see a cartload of stuff ring up for 50 cents.
the way their stores look around here they should randomly mark a lot of shit down to half a cent to get the customers to clear it out for them.
At dollar general, when a season ends, some seasonal items get discounted to a penny (or a couple cents). Penny shoppers go around scanning items to find what costs a penny and buying all of it. People would leave with a cart full of stuff for a couple bucks. At my dollar general the manager didnāt really care though.
If itās going to get thrown out anyway, why would they care.
Wow that's some dedication. In our local supermarket the manager would pile the penny items in one spot at the corner of the store.
same with Claireās. people will come in and shop mainly in the clearance and purchase something from the Easter holiday in summer, it goes down to one cent lmao i love ringing them up and telling people āoh! this is only a penny!ā

Minimum wage means minimum effort.

The nicer they were the more Iād let go. Iād also do it if I was busy, and just wanted to get people through as fast as possible. And with the homeless people that came in. They never got much because they didnāt have much, usually just some snacks and water and such. Hopefully it helped them get some more food or even a beer or cigs later. We also had a system where we put our own tags on some things, and if something didnāt scan, Iād find the cheapest item I could that was similar and put that tag on it. One lady got so excited to get a small craft set thingy for like 10 cents. This company is vehemently anti union and forced us to watch a video about how āunions are badā before we started working. So fuck them š¤·āāļø

No corporation wants to hire a modern day Robbin hood. He steals from the rich remember?
Then put it on your organized crime resume?
When I worked for Gymboree they would expect us to chase after shoplifters. We were located in a massive outlet mall in a large city. There were actual gangs of shoplifters that worked around the city and had been on the news for shooting at mall cops, etc when running away. I never said I wouldnāt do anything to my bosses but you can bet I never went after a shoplifter. No chance Iām risking my safety over tiny T-shirts. Companies really give zero fucks about their employees.
True hero
I worked at Barnes and noble and part of our training was to let people steal if they didnāt immediately stop when the sensor alarms went off. Basically that itās not safe to follow someone outside the store and they were more concerned about employee safety than someone taking a book
This honestly makes me want to buy books in person. And I only do audio books
I had a hard rule when I worked retail: If you see somebody stealing food or baby stuff, no you didn't.
My mom taught me this as a kid and it has stuck
You are a hero, thank you.
One time at Walmart I had a pencil case box with 100$ worth of tiny tiny items. I went to a person who was working the register and only had 3 or 4 other items with the pencil box. He scanned the box and I told him it had a bunch of other items in it. He just threw it in the bag and said I donāt care and I paid 97Ā¢ for it 100$ of merchandise. It was awesome.
A model citizen. Thank you for your service
You were like the Robin Hood of Walmart. I hope all good things come your way.
Thank you for your service šš»
personally i think Sam would be rolling over in his grave if he saw what his store turned into. its a joke now days, they use to be cool stores but have turned to crap. they have a lot of old people working there and handicap which is great but from what i have heard (personally and first hand) they pay them crap
This comment reminded me of this awesome The Onion skit https://youtu.be/repxFQXVsHc
Isn't this place for confessing bad things?
Please tell me you still do. You used to, too, but you still do.
I dont advocate stealing at all, but at some point there are just some things that a billion dollar corporation can afford to over look. A roll of toilet paper is not going to be a death sentence to the business survival of walmart.
Yeah, in all fairness, thereās stealing, thereās stealing, and thereās stealingā¦. if that makes sense.
Thank you for your service!
You're a fucking hero. No, seriously, you're a hero.
My uncle, who served in the army his entire life once told me this when I was starting my company. "An organization which cares for its people breeds people who cares for the organization.
Iām seriously going to have to remember this one! Great quote!
you're a KING
You were doing God's work. I thank you for your service.
You are a veritable legend kind human, I salute you.
I don't blame you, frankly. Self checkout is just straight corporate greed, making the consumer work for the company without pay. It doesn't make it cheaper for the consumer, just more profits for Walmart. I won't shop there and they deserve to be robbed.
As someone with social anxiety. Self checkouts are a goddam gift.
I thought I was the only one that always does self checkouts! I cannot stand to go through a lane with a cashier lol my anxiety goes through the roof!
They have their place when they are optional, for sure. With one cashier working one line for an entire super Walmart, self checkout isn't functionally optional. I've been in a Walmart about three times since they switched to mostly self checkout. Twice I wheeled my cart up to self checkout and looked lost until an employee rang it up for me. The last time was with my young son and I just let him do it because he thought it was fun.
This was very good work on your part. I'm glad you helped people get stuff they needed for less money. Thank you. You are a hero in my world
"I *need* this..." *proceeds to walk out with a 65" TV*
hehehe this really made me chuckle ā¦
I'd do the same in that situation tbh
lol one time i was going through checkout w my toddler in the cart. my cashier was a teenage guy, on my left side. the woman working at the checkout on my right side noticed my daughter, greeted her, said she was cute, and offered her a little sleeve of oreos as a treat and said they were free. i thanked her and looked in my bag to get my card ready to pay for the rest of my stuff. the woman turned her attention away and the teenage cashier took the cookies from my daughters hands and put it to the sideā¦ and stood there just looking at me. i was like ???? i told him the other cashier said she could have them, i wasnāt trying to steal. the woman turned around and berated the boy to give my toddler the cookies and, ādonāt you charge her for those!ā
Similar, but still goes on "confession" -- When I worked at Kroger, we were supposed to stop people stealing, physically. People would load up a cart and go out the entrance. I never stopped them. I didn't see it often, but it was fucking food, man. I always wondered what lengths I would go to if I had a hungry child at home, and while you just don't know when you see people... I didn't act. Stealing food.
i read on one of the subs here that walmart donate to food banks, foods that are no longer safe or edible to eat because they are way way beyond their expiration dates.
They do this to get extra tax deductions. Greedy corporate a-holes.
I steal from that shitty bajillion dollar company all the time. Or I will go to the clearance isles and racks and snag a bunch of price tags that are like $.50-$5.00 and stick them to high priced items. And then I'd use the walmart app to scan and go, then at self checkout I'd transfer all my items over to the machine and pay cash. Then put my stuff in bags, by taking the bags off the holder and not putting them into the bags with the scales underneath while they are still on the holder because it will calibrate all the items rang up to weigh a certain thing and if that weight doesn't match what is in the bags on the scales then the transaction gets flagged and a random item or two has to be scanned by an associate. Where I live our self checkout associates are nazis and really love their job and Walmart. They don't even realize how shitty they are being treated and how they can get a better job for $10 more with way better benefits. I steal at least $100 or more, but will pay for like 20 of the items every time.
> brawny paper towels 12 pack was labeled BR Pap t 12 This shit is ridiculous. You can't have employees holding people of with illegible bullshit.
I am in love with you op
My dad used to get aquarium fish from Wallyworld, get a bag of like 10-20 then head to self checkout and pay for one. š¤·āāļø
When I was a cashier at a grocery store if I didn't know the code to produce I would just make a scanning motion and toss it in the customers bag. No one checked receipts, and I didn't want to make a huge deal of finding a manager to get the correct code. I had a lady get mad at me for not charging her for lemongrass, held up the line a good 5/6 minutes while I ran around the store trying to track down a manager to get the correct code then everyone was pissed.
Srsly. $13/hr mini mart cashier here who recently had a long line while working alone and one bitchy regular thought she was giving me an education (or something) when she told me that people had been walking out with stuff while I was helping the customers in front of me. I wanted to clap back and say āOh, well let me put on my badge and grab my shotgun and chase them down. BRB.ā Like, WTF do you think Iām going to do? Instead I took the higher road and said weāll look at the cameras. Whatevs.
Exactly, I was hired to help the customers, not be loss prevention!
My heart absolutely goes out to you. Please get a better job before u go mad!
I did the thing too! When I worked at Walmart
I used to work at Walmart and was in the self checkout and I let a young father steal a huge box of size 1 diapers. At Walmart we had little devices so we could see in real time what was being scanned at what checkout machine. At Walmart the door greeters technically donāt have the authority to keep you in the store once youāve checked out and cannot force you to show a receipt. I was scolded for ānot noticingā because the man refused to show his receipt but honestly not ashamed to have helped him out he made sure his kid was good no matter the cost.
yeah I work at Kmart (australia yes it still exists) and everytime Iām on the door I could give less of a fuck
Iāve done it myself but most of the time, I didnāt have a choice. When you canāt feed your family all week, you do what you have to do to get by. I use the reusable bags. If I only have a few things, I would hold my bag and only scan a couple cheap things and not scan the rest. Iām not saying itās right but Iāve done it. A lot of people would probably agree.
One time I entered the wrong kind of apple and a worker ran over to correct it immediately because the kind I actually had was a few cents higher.
What a jerk, itās not itās his money!
Hero!
Look, coming from a former Walmart employee, we get paid ass to do asinine work. For a company that doesnāt care about us and they rake in over 600 BILLION in a year. Youāre fine, the poor billionaires arenāt going to feel anything because you didnāt hound an old lady for some damn cranberries.
I thought they had more sophisticated means to discourage stealing in SM, in the US. Or to detect people carrying weapons...
Nope. Itās pretty much the honor system at this point. I learned that Most people donāt steal if they think someone is watching.
I've definitely stolen by accident and even my niece when she was a baby would take stuff and we wouldn't knowš¤¦š¾
At Asda (Walmart-owned UK store), they had a whole presentation when I started working there which basically said let people steal
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Any idea if they share the info on repeat shoplifters across several stores? Like if you spread your stealing across several stores, would that make it less likely youāll be caught crossing the felony threshold?
Thank you for your service <3
I'm so with you on this you don't even know, I'm also in retail and I couldn't agree more.
Dam wish i could have gone thru ur line!!! Literally every single time i shop at walmart i am over charged by 1 to 2 items and have to go to customer service yo get refunded. Walmart steals from me so im glad you did what you did. Always check ur walmart receipt for errors
I worked at a store similar to Walmart and let people steal all the time in self checkout. Oh well
who gives a shit, why do people act like walmart cant spare the money lmfao
Lol I used to work security for big companies like Loblaws & Walmart and I actively let people steal all of the time.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
During back-to-school season a few years ago, I was working retail and every once in a while whenever I saw a family buying new clothes and supplies for theirs kids I would āaccidentallyā scan an item incorrectly and toss it in their bag. I think mom and dads deserve a break every once in a while.
yup. work retail currently. do the same, and purposefully dont wring items up if the customer is having a bad day/is struggling with money
Wait - itās suspicious to say bye? Well, shit. I thank and say goodbye people when I leave stores.
I realized the front door people didnāt know the codes when I bought my twins a kiddie pool & they told me I didnāt pay for it & I pointed at the first scanned item on the receipt.
All they look for is stuff not in bags plus thereās no way to remember 1000ās of abbreviated items. Itās almost a no brainer to just label it on the receipt as something you could identifyā¦. Someone just got lazy about typing out the whole words for some reason
Fuck Walmart, fuck how they treat their employees, and fuck how they put small local stores out of business. You're a hero. Some of those people might have been seriously struggling while Walmart rakes in the millions. I have no sympathy for any "shrinkage" problems Walmart has.
One time we were at Albertsons getting some necessities and buying an expensive allergy medicine. ($20-30 for one item was extremely expensive to us at the time) and the guy couldn't get it to ring and he just tossed it in a bad and said 'Just take it. I hate this job so much, it's a hell hole' I felt bad because I was an accomplice to stealing but we were really struggling at the time. Idk if that was the Lord or not š¤
Op should have ātakenā items too š¤
stabbed as a Tesco cashier/security? wtf?
I mean isn't that policy for most big franchise retailers? If someone is stealing something, just let it happen and file a police report. If its at the self checkout and it has an auto report system with an AI, you're not doing anything wrong or insidious even not calling the cops then because it's a problem that works itself out. Can't be blamed if someone found a way to cheat the system or it doesn't work
Thank you. you are an angel! If they want great loss prevention they gotta pay more for that. NOBODY is going to care for your business the way you would, and if you want that, you gotta pay for that treatment.
Is this what weighs heavy on your mind? Seriously?
I worked as a front end supervisor at a grocery store. We were often times told to let them go. Not worth a lawsuit.
Walmart employees have no legal right to ask to see a customers receipt.
Anywhere else and I might not say this, but itās Walmart, so you were doing the Lords work
I used to do the same at my old job, didn't get paid enough to care about people stealing and to be honest, if they did it wasn't really over $30 which a big company can afford to lose out on
You're a real one
If someone needs to steal, not my problem - I was a self checkout worker too, and I let that shit slide if it wasnāt too much
I've accidentally stole on accdient. Evrytime I put something at the bottom of the cart mostly waterbottles, I'd always forget to scan them for some reason. I try not to get so much to where I have to put something at the bottom now.
At Petsmart (where I spend a fortune) I handed the cashier a coupon for a free Halloween pet costume that had expired the day before. She made such a commotion over it that the mgr came over & told her to accept it. On my way out I told her that while itās admirable sheās looking out for the financial well being of a multi-billion dollar company, they didnāt give a shit about her & she was just a part of the system they exploit for profit. Itās not worth her arguing with a customer to save the company $9.99. Corporate greed
A had a friend whose mom was caught stealing from Walmart. In court they added several more counts of theft on her because they had video of her stealing several times in the self checkout. All those times she thought she had gotten away with it came back to bite her in the ass because she never counted on them having video. Also we live in a very small town, the next closest Walmart is about an hour away making it a sure bet that the locals will always be back.
Nice!
While I disprove of your doing that I do agree that retail stores get away with way too much. They do not hire many full-time employees. The reason for that is simple. Part time employees do not get benefits. They also do not pay very much. Retail stores like this benefit indirectly from welfare programs for their workers because it is the only way those workers can survive.
Walmart has cameras and knows people steal. They build a large enough case on them when they have stolen at least X amount of goods before getting police involved. When there is a minimum amount stolen the crime is considered a felony versus misdemeanor. So it doesn't matter you didn't stop the crime. Walmart will catch them if they keep stealing.
Did the company ever catch on to what you were doing?
Nope, never. They were too short staffed I think
I fucking hate self checkouts. I never use them unless I have no choice, even if it means I have to wait. Iām not working for these companies as their free cashier. The last time I used self checkout at Walmart, I accidentally left a bag because the little table is so small I had to Tetris everything on it. The bag got pushed in a corner and I didnāt notice. I even called the store later to see if it was there and of course it wasnāt.
Having integrity is one of the highest forms of being a human especially when no one is watching. No one forced you to accept a low paying Job, if you accepted it, it is on you to honour that contract. Stealing is still stealing, whether you steal a cent or a zillion.
Yeah but I wasnāt hired to stop theft, only assist with customers having issues with the machine. Thereās a whole other dept for theft and loss and they are paid substantially better. Iām putting myself through college, not making a career in retail. Itās not my fault if people steal, I just choose not to do anything about it. Also because the world is a different place than it was 20 years ago. Itās crazy, workers at Walmart now have to take a class on active shooter eventās because so many shootings happen at Walmarts. Iām not putting my life in jeopardy if some one gets irate that I caught them stealing a $5 item. I live in an open carry state so people be carrying the guns, if you know what I mean.
I get people are hard up, but stealing is shitty. Thatās too bad that you had a job where you have to let people steal to be safe. Get rid of self checkout. A lot of those problems would be solved.
If the Walmart closes due to excessive thefts and no profits, it will just close, creating a food dessert. Thatās what happened to 3 Walmart grocery stores on the south side of Chicago. The communities there were complaining why these stores were closing and now where will they go get their damn food and medicine for old people. walmart didnāt provide an exact reason. Walmart just said they didnāt turn up a profit in the last few years. But people were saying because of excessive thefts. But the community donāt protests about the excessive thefts, they allow it. Well. Just drive father or take the train farther to go to other grocery stores.
Or or or, you could have a smart response to this and say "why are the pressures to steal greater than the pressure is to pay." Then you can start to address issues like corporate inflation and greed that are making paying for groceries fucking impossible for a lot of Americans. Of course people are stealing, are they going to starve? Are they going to watch their families starve? Walmart, amongst others in this hellish system we call the free market, have made this problem for themselves. They prioritized short term profits and let the communities they disrupted be damned If you are hungry, if you are struggling, steal from big grocery stores. As a long time food shoplifter there is little dignity in stealing but there is less in starving
I do not believe that Walmart hasn't turned a profit that is the biggest crock of shit I have ever heard any ppl are naive if they believe these corrupt corporations
Aren't Walmarts closing now in several locations due to the level of shoplifting? I seem to recall reading about this. So now not only do all the people who work there lose their jobs, but the people who live in that area lose their Walmart. Oh well, I guess they can all shop at the nearest Nordstrom instead.
Closing of stores is nearly never due to loss due to theft. That amount is already calculated into operating costs. They will sell that story to create a false narrative to make them the giant corporation look sympathetic. "Itās much more convenient if we can blame it on people we already consider reprehensible,ā he said https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/18/business/retail-shoplifting-shrink-walgreens/index.html
You need to read your own link.
"Itās also easier for companies and the public to blame theft for store closures and retail struggles than admit storesā over-expansion, strategy mistakes and customers abandoning stores for online shopping" I work at a Walmart. Each year we get a shrink budget (I believe our store's is $5 million this year), and when inventory rolls around and they do the counts, we find out how much we actually lost. You would be amazed at how much shrinkage comes just from damaged merchandise. Just the other day we had to throw out around $50k in frozen goods due to multiple coolers breaking.
And that's where the dumpster divers come to the rescue ..so long as youb dont lock up yout unsaleable merch!
He's not stealing. He's just not giving as shit. That's what you get when you pay people so little.
He's just as guilty as the guy stealing. And whether he gets "paid so little" is irrelevant. I'm sure if you checked his job description it doesnt include helping people steal. And for that matter, his level of remuneration comes down to him. If you want to earn more, you need to have a skill that pays more. That's his responsibility.
Yes. Shrinkage is a cost of doing business and a certain amount is priced into the goods. So by stealing prices go up for everyone. But if it increases to the point where the company can't pass it on to customers or can't make a sufficient profit to make keeping the location open, they will close. OP and his beneficiaries are selfish lowlifes.
It's crazy how you identify more with Walmart than the people struggling to afford groceries. The people you call lowlifes have a lot more in common with you than the stores, and if they don't then I hope your stuff gets redistributed too
You like to play the victim card don't you. It's pathetic. If you can't afford groceries, that's no-one's fault but yours. The world doesn't owe you or anyone else a living. Suggest you learn a skill that pays more. It takes work and paying your dues. If you don't want to do that, well, is it really a surprise that you make minimum wage?
"Let them eat cake" šŖšŖšŖ
It's crazy that people here are rationalizing outright theft. "Here is a product. For $6 (lower than anywhere else), you can have it" "Nah I'll just take it" Criminal simps: "Woohoo!!!!" And the overall point is that the more is stolen the more walmart has to charge for products to everyone. So OP and the villians he helps are actually ripping off honest customers.
Lol you just called moms stealing diapers villains. I'm not trying to change your mind, you're clearly a POS who will get his. If I was such an un-empathetic douchebag I'd be worried about common people getting uppity too
Those people are thieves and you are an immoral person. It's not surprising that you couldn't find a job for more than $13 per hour. "Shrinkage" is a cost of business that affects pricing of every product. By stealing or allowing theft you are basically putting a tax on every honest person to the benefit of you and every thief.
The Walmart pays no taxes now who's the thief? I have never and never will shop at Walmart. They're the among the first to take hundreds of thousands of jobs and contractors away from USA into China for cheap labor and no benefits. You're late to Walmart fascism ways. Top 5 billionaire in the world š off the backs of poor people š¢ they have no intentions of paying a living wage. STOP SHOPPING at Walmart target CVS etc Amazon until they pay their fair share of federal taxes allow laborers to form unions and pay a living wage. STOP SHOPPING except for necessity!!!
It's not surprising they couldn't hire someone better for so little. If they cared about shrinkage, they'd pay more, but they did the calculations, and decided it's more economical to let people get away with occasional theft than to hire honest people at an honest wage.
Lmfaoo imagine feeling bad for a Walmart
Fr ppl who simp for big corporations are some of the cringiest ppl on earth
Pass on this. Companies have been squeezing every penny from employers, employ slave labor unions and sweat shops to make their products unethically. Walmart used to openly tell their new employees to apply for state benefits at hire to make up for their lack of wages and benefits. That is directly a tax in all citizens, and no one gets an opportunity to prevent it. Toe the societal line if you like, but these companies have victimized people for profit for decades for profit. Youāll pardon me if I shed no tears at them being ripped off from time to time
It must be nice be so fucking stupid

Feeding your family and yourself is the right thing to do. You sound like a person who has been blessed to never be forced to make a truly hard decision Growing up in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina I saw black "looters" getting shot for taking diapers and food from destroyed stores and white "refugees" or "survivors" get praised for the same thing. It's not as simple as morals, you should try to understand that for many poor Americans it is a struggle to stay alive and healthy, due in no small part to poor access to affordable food
Itās called work. There is plenty of it out there. And how TF would you know if Iāve struggled. I made the truly hard decision to get my ass up and out to work everyday. I donāt feel entitled to other peoples property.
You haven't struggled yet but ,Allah willing, the revolution will come and you can toil in the gulag On a serious note tho, there aren't a lot of high paying, or even moderately paying, jobs. You are providing a non-answer so I will give you a non-answer and say stop being such a bootlicker
Allah sure wouldnāt appreciate you being a homosexual. Or twink what ever the fuck you call yourself.

Real life Robin Hood
I worked at Walmart for years and one time after work I was completely zoned out and got a drink from the cooler by the self checkout and completely forgot to ring it up and drank it outside and no one said a damn thing to me. Afterwards I suddenly thought, wait I should've paid for this. Maybe AP noticed but didn't care cause it was just a $1.50 chocolate milk.
Which Walmart do you work at? Lol
Youāre my hero
Thank you for your services
Now we make $15 / hour.
Op decided that if they could play any character in les mis they would chose the priest
I've always referred to Walmart as "the warehouse of free shit" lol when I was 15 for a solid year me and my best friend that was living with me because he got kicked out would go to walmart once or twice a year and just fill a cart with like 4 cases of beer and just walk on out did that for a solid year only ALMOST got caught once stopped at door for receipt said we'd go get it from the register and just went out the door on the other end
i love how people at grocery store a are like the chillest people ever when it come to stealing, they just look away
I have never been stopped by the checker on exit. I am 62 chubby old man. I shop regularly and I have told my friends to wa
I hate to say it but I think it's time we all started taking things when we shop and donating the "freed" items to food banks. Supermarkets will employ more security staff in response, lock more stuff away etc, but there are ways round it which I suspect redditors will share.. I'd advocate the same for petrol stations too - though harder to get away with there I suppose No it's not nice, it's not "right", it is however morally justifiable.
I helped write that AI and I approve of this message.
Thank you for sticking up for the little guy bc u know rich folks do t shop at Walmart (not all) but itās the little guy that shops there bc we have to

When I was younger I used to go to the womenās purse section, get a large purse, carry it around like itās mine and fill it with more stolen things and then walk out lmao
I've seen people take something like a pack of gum and hold it over the barcode of an expensive item causing the scanner to ring up the pack of gum.
I work at McDonaldās. I give people get free stuff all the time. I just graduated highschool and Iām about to go into the military so I donāt feel like getting yelled at by people. Iām already going to have to be yelled at enough in bootcamp
As low as Walmart employees are paid, I can see this. Also the self checkout takes away the few jobs available. I hate them.
Used to??!! You better start letting them do it again god damnit!! Fuck Walmart!! Cocksuckers raised theyāre prices when they didnāt need to, besides all their beef is that cloned genetically modified crap, or havenāt any of you noticed that Walmarts beef tastes funny? Now google does Walmart sell genetically modified cloned beef. Like I said fuck walmart!!
