Do You Have To Show Your Receipt?

1. Any likes and subs are sincerely appreciated! We are growing at a fantastic rate and I can't thank you all enough for being here from the beginning!

2. I need to hear more of this shit where the ending is like
   "Yea you COULD but like.. why"
   I came in here with some fuckin justice boner and got de-escalated, do more of that

3. Costco actually has the right to stop you because they are a membership store and by signing it you are agreeing to their terms.
   Walmart doesn't have that. And technically there is no law that states that you have to stop and show your receipt to them.

   No he's technically just a people greeter that's been given double duty

4. I will not submit to another citizen and employee's of a retail outlet are just a simple citizen and therefore have no right to acuse me of stealing and when they demand to see my recipe that is what a citizen is doing

5. You ask for it I’m walking right to RETURN it all. I haven’t shopped at WM in probably two years now. F them

6. Why is this a legal matter at all? If someone refuses to show their receipt just have them trespassed from the store as is the stores right.

7. My brother did this job for 2 months before quitting, he got yelled at on a daily base, receipt throw at his face, got call racial slur & shoved. He like I’m just doing my job.

8. If I go to Walmart and they check out my groceries I'm not showing my receipt to anyone when their employee has done the process!

9. I have no problem showing my receipts. I’m not going to harass the poor minimum wage workers who’s trying to do their job just to prove a point. It’s hard enough working with the public, I’m not going heap more burning coals on their heads.

10. Its real simple, you don't like the policies of a certain store? YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOP THERE. Its their property, they can ask you to leave at any time. Maybe if there wasn't so much theft they wouldn't have to check receipts. I find it mildly inconvenient but I am not one of those self important selfish people who think they are more important then people who UNDERSTAND that helping the store reduce theft helps not only the store but the customers as well. Lastly if you have nothing to hid and they are checking everyone's receipt and you still refuse…. you are just an entitled PoS.

11. I am very glad that the law is very clear where I live.

    Costco can check my receipts because I gave them permission in order to use their store.

    Walmart and all the others do not have the right to falsely accuse me of shoplifting without evidence, and thus do not have a right to my personal information, or to search my personal possessions.

    They have to wait for a cop, and the cops get really angry at the Walmart associate for calling in false alarms.

    The fact that big box stores wish to operate without the correct number of employees to be cashiers, and that they decided to force the customer to do their own cashier work, is not my problem.

    I am not responsible for loss prevention due to poor business decisions, and neither is any other honest citizen out minding their own business shopping.

12. My daughter loves to give him the receipt she's always they let us walk by and she always wants to show it to him I mean I don't see why you should have a problem showing them the receipt takes 2 seconds

13. Shopkeeper's privilege is a law recognized in the United States under which a shopkeeper is allowed to detain a suspected shoplifter on store property for a reasonable period of time, so long as the shopkeeper has cause to believe that the person detained in fact committed, or attempted to commit, theft of store property.

14. @AuditTheAudit I’m sorry, but of all the “flex your rights” videos I’ve seen, this is utter bs. The overwhelming majority of shopping I do is at the stores in my town. These stores employ people who live in my town. I see these same people over and over, and they see me. They smile, take the receipt, scribble on it, they may or may not take a quick glance in my bags, and no, it doesn’t offend me. They don’t think I stole from them, they’re just doing a job, and I’m glad for them that they have a job. “We’ll offer you $20/hr (whatever it is) to check people’s receipts as they leave the store.” “Well, I need the job, but wouldn’t that potentially violate people’s 4A rights?” 🙄 Just show the damn receipt.

15. there are no complicated legal issues here ,if they have reason to believe you are stealing they can all the cops ,you dont have to show a damn thing to anyone even the cops ,if they dont like it they can trespass you but without RAS of a crime the 4th amendment protects you ,probable cause is not needed to detain or search anyone ,only RAS which is a lower standard

16. I order on Amazon. works every time.

17. These big box stores may have the ability to detain you but they don't have a free pass to assault you. In my state assault on a senior carries automatic jail time so go ahead and lay hands on me. I can and will defend myself and you'll go to jail…

18. New thought on receipt checking is a scanner next to the receipt checker . Walmart only looking for the date of purchase . Other than 😵‍💫 Simms club looks at receipt AND scans a few items bar codes . I like to stop during that time and have a conversation backing up customers . Sam’s club not quick like Costco with 2 checkers and Sam’s club having a lot of complaints and adopting new system . I purposely have bar codes up so things are quicker at stores .

19. So, question goes unanswered.

20. When asked "can I see your receipt?" My answer is always a very polite, "No thank you." only twice have they pressed the issue to which I politely added, " If you suspect me of theft just say that and I will happily show you my receipt. If you aren't going to make the accusation then please stop impeding my movememt."
    edit: Yes I absolutely will waste time challenging their stupidity… and the "if you dont have nothing to hide" weak arse argument is what people who want power hope everyone buys into because its a slippery slope they are always trying to force you down until they can fully dictate your behavior with little regard for you the personm

21. They want you to do your own check out, but they don’t trust you to do your own checkout.

22. I am a 64 year old man that ran into a situation at our local Walmart that I am confused of what to do about it. On 5-15-2024 I picked two items and checked out on the self-checkout, paid and looked around for a bag big enough for one of the items. It was really big but it did not fit in the small bags they had available. I looked around for about 30 seconds for a large enough bag with no luck. I paid with my debit card and when the self-check kiosk as me do you want a printed receipt, emailed receipt, or text it to me. I chose text it to me. I then went to leave and an employee stopped me for my receipt, I explained to her I did not get one as I pushed text it to me. She started asking me do you have your phone? Yes, I said and she made me look for the receipt. I had not received it. She said we have to go back into the self-checkout area. Where now back in this area and an employee came over fast and said to her, He is okay as I saw him check out. He said sometimes it takes 15 minutes to get that text from their system. I told him I would not have to wait 15 minutes in the future if someone did not see me checking out the items. I told him that “receipt text to you” should be removed from the system or honor it. I no longer shop at Walmart.

23. You can shop in Costco without a membership. You can buy prescriptions/alcohol/optical without a membership…

24. Only a CMIMINAL would refuse to comply with a business that is only trying to reduce CRIME.

25. I definitely just keep walking when they ask.

26. Once a business receives payment their choice of how they set their entrance and exits should not allow them to search you.or your property.

27. Has anyone asked about California? Shoplifting is legal in California if the items total less than $900. So if they can see the cart has some toilet paper, Bud Light, and chocolate cookies (obviously below the threshold) do we have to show the receipt?

28. So can we legally refuse to show a Receipt, Or Not?

29. Update on this, the detainment now will most likely be constitutional because they can easily be released by showing receipt. More states are leaning towards this in their supreme courts

30. Just show your receipt and move on with your day there are people in this world in north Korea the wish they had it like we do

31. They want to see zee papers! Walmart also has a secret gang stalking unit to, apparently they model their lp like Nazis

32. Only crackheads don't show receipts

33. Sometimes if you don't show your receipt, they'll call the SS soldiers of the American Gestapo

34. Worst video of explaining a persons legal rights. 😢

35. Considering some places give you the option to not print a recit and some people throw it away instantly so as to not bring trash home.

36. I'm 6'5 340. Stop me.

    Literally always just walk right out.

37. ya you want everyone to bend over not me

38. I DID SHOP AT WALMART BUT I DON'T ANYMORE, I ALWAYS CHECKED OUT AT A WALMART EMPLOYEE REGISTER & THEY STILL WANT TO SEE MY RECEIPT, WELL i AM FED UP WITH WALMART , I QUIT GOING THERE, IM 90 & TIRED OF THEIR NON-SENSE !

39. This video is the best one out there that breaks it all down

40. I usually hate Auditors but I agree with them on this one. Walmart just loves making a big issue out of nothing. They have no legal right to stop you

41. 7:43 Because you never know how crazy a random person in public could be, it’s absolutely ridiculous to have minimum wage Walmart greeters potentially risking their lives over a 32 pack of water

42. *OPINION* There should be EVIDENCE to support their suspicion that you might have committed a crime before they interfere with your rights.

    *EXAMPLE* A woman can record how she steals a champagne bottle from Walmart by shoving it up her ass and then post it on OnlyFans. This doesn't' give Walmart the right to cavity search people. But if there is evidence that somebody might have committed a crime, they have every right to detain you until the cops arrive.

43. I asked a guy who checks receipts at Walmart if I have to show them receipts and he said I have the right to say no and they have to let you leave.

44. Most theft at Walmart is internal

45. Walmarts policy allows them to ask you for a receipt, not force you to show it ..

46. Any Walmart employee who attempts to physically restrain a customer is automatically terminated. They cant touch your person or pursue you past where the front walkway meets the asphalt in the parking lot but they can grab the cart since its their property. Walmart also has a loss prevention department that handles theft and a camera system with facial recognition software and their computer network rivals the Pentagon (told to me by a Microsoft employee who worked their account for my state) so if you stole anything, loss prevention would be on you before you get to the register.

    In the self checkout line there are always a couple employees standing around and one with a hand held scanner and if the scanner has an "error" they have to swipe their card before you can continue scanning items. Truth is she shut the scanner down so she could come closer and look over the items to make sure everything is being scanned. Not to worry though, if you make the mistake of failing to scan an item and you somehow make it out of the store, they have all they need to track you down and make you pay dearly for being so absent minded. When you're finished scanning and go to pay, be sure to check the screen on the machine because last time i used it, it asked me if i wanted to leave a tip and gave the percentages of the total with the dollar amount beside the percentages.

    Bottom line is to always check under the cart and make sure you get everything because they will come for you no matter what the amount of the the mistake. Walmart only cares about the money which is the goal of the franchise and will prosecute every case they can and its a rare occasion for them to lose because they can tie it up in court and financially ruin anyone brave enough to stand against them. I worked for them in one of their distribution centers for over 5 years. They paid a fair wage for warehouse workers but for the retail side, it was considerably worse and theres no security in the job.

47. i showed a brown guy at walmart my receipt, everything that i had in the cart was listed on it but he was terrible at reading english, he made a huge stink about me stealing…… not my problem bro maybe the company should test for english competency before hiring for that position

48. So…… do I legally have to show my receipt at Walmart or not? Maybe im dumb but I don't feel like I got a clear understanding from this video. Please let me know. Thanks

49. That's why I use the app for pick up

50. they can try to stop anyone but they might get a bullet or a knife instead of a receipt like in the news. how much do they pay their employees ?
