Walmart could close because of too much theft?

[fungi]

Amazon will take over, not the small mom and pop shops

They'll have to deal with the same shoplifters as Walmart, which they won't stand a chance. They'll go out of business in a week.

Fuck Amazon as well! With a baseball bat.

What about Versez?! Won't anyone think of Versez?!

Awesome Feel validated as someone who supported those brave souls looting. They really made a difference something voters never will.

Also to above posts I hate Amazon but I don't think you can really shoplift Amazon given there's no physical plant.

This is Onion but Walmart did it shows the negative reputaton Walmarts had that was bound to get it sooner or later.

Shout out to the absolute banger of a headline: Walmart CEO warns company will close stores if theft doesn't slow down

Warn who? The people stealing your shit?

A multi Billion dollar company closing because of some thefts ? right.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Closing physical stores meaning a bigger switch to a ecommerce operation which just hurt the poverty classes.

Don’t they lock up all the shaving stuff at least ? I can’t imagine how many aftershaves were stolen .

Self-checkout has cameras all over the place. Security stops the transaction if you are spotted not scanning something.

They are talking about closing stores where local PD & prosecutors don't take shoplifting seriously.

They need to start arming the senior citizen door greeters/receipt checkers. Yellow marker in one hand, glock in the other.

Close stores. Not go out of business. They will close specific stores.

Those expensive ass Gillette razor cartridges were probably the main reason, I used to buy those by the box load off crackheads all the time, now that theyre locked up I gotta pay full price and that really steams my clams!

Yes it would be worth it. Never been a fan of either.

Oh no, the Waltons may have to sell off artwork from their gallery in Bentonville. Can you imagine.

Hey Walmart I suspect you could stop a lot of theft if you quit making your customers do the work for you at self check out. It's ridiculous they have 20 empty check outs and a huge line at self check out. Looks to me like not only is theft much higher when you let customers check out on their own but also legitimate mistakes. I was raised not to steal so I know I check out correctly but I'm sure it would be extremely easy to steal multiple items every visit if I wanted to.

You should read up more on this it's hard to not ring something in self checkout and not get caught they have all kinds of systems in place. The big danger is in being falsely accused of theft or actually missing something in the cart and getting cuffed and arrested.

I steal a lot of shit thanks to those self check out thingy.
scan 1 items, put 2 in the bags, everytime.

Food price are ups? Not for me!

You're not getting ahead by stealing. You will find yourself struggling worse in life because of your evil ways.

I strongly disagree!

Nah, they will just charge everyone else a higher price for their goods to make up for the losses.

Parasites in society should be shipped overseas and forced to dig rocks.
