Comment on Some Walmart employees say customers are getting hostile at self-checkout — and they blame anti-theft tech

Also, some places do random inspection. But that’s frustration free too

Yeah, I’m gonna disagree with that. They’ve recently ramped up those checks because of increased theft due to inflation. They also scan more items now. After having been checked 4 times in a row and them completely emptying my bag each time, I no longer use the self checkout.

  NL as well. Maybe it’s because it’s a big city, poor neighbourhood, more theft, I don’t know, but I’m done with it.

    Thanks, it really was. I had happily used the self-checkouts for years before that, so it’s a real shame.
