Oh yeah. This is the big open secret. Theft is way up with these. It turns out that when you take people out of the equation and combine that with prices going up, a lot more shoppers figure it is only natural to compensate themselves a little. Just some little things you can plausibly explain as having overlooked them if someone finds out. Buy three chocolate bars, scan two. I have no idea what the next iteration will be, or if this is considered acceptable in terms of profits.

Admittedly, it's been a while since I've gone, but I used to simply not stop for the door-checkers. They'd want to look in the cart/at the receipt and I'd keep a nice brisk pace about my business. You think I stole it? Get the real cops. I actually paid for everything, enjoy. Why'd I stop going? Armed private security with more ego than training. Much better options. Absolutely not advice, but usually the right look/pace does wonders. It helps to be defensible.
