I've had more than one HD/Lowes clerk tell me that losses from theft are very high, so much so that they said it was stupid for the company not to try to stop it. Lots of thieves in the ranks of the general population. As an aside, my personal theory is these are the SAME people who fail to return a wallet or purse stuffed with cash to its owner, keep incorrect change given to them by mistake, and worst of all, flee after accidentally running over someone in their vehicle.

| You can watch me all you want, what you can't do it stop me at the door and go over my receipt. I am nice about it but I am not stopping as I walk out the door for you to double check me. I will let you do it at Sams Club because I agreed to your rules when I joined. Anywhere else, if you think I stole something then call the cops and hope you are right. |

| I wonder if really really wealthy people ever walk up to the self checkout with their $350.00 sink , hand the watchers $300.00 and just wait for them to git'er done

| I like using self checkout as I don't shop for much stuff. To me, my time is more valuable than some shitty idea of "it's not my job to check myself out..." I'd rather waste my time doing something I enjoy than standing in line.
