In mine they replaced the friendly greeters with stone faced security guards. The self checkouts also remind you that they're watching your every move with a dialog you must accept before paying.
- jimmaswell 7y agoI assume this is based on local theft statistics. The one near where I grew up has receipt-checkers but the one near where I live now (nicer area) didn't have anything of the sort. Walked out after buying a bunch of big objects not in bags and nobody interrupted me.
- jdsully 7y agoThis is in one of the wealthier neighborhoods in the Greater Toronto Area. Its not known for its crime, and this particular Walmart used to be much nicer before what I'm guessing is a new manager took over. The security guards don't check your receipt or even talk to you. They just stare as you enter and leave. The old nice ladies they previously employed would always say Hello.
