Walmart forces customers to use the self-checkouts. 15 regular registers, with only one open. They used to have the 10 or 20 items or less checkouts that were open during the day. But, they pulled all of those out and replaced them with self-checkouts. It is ridiculous to see people with heaping carts of merchandise at the self-checkout. It really is no surprise that some items get missed.

Many times they don't have any cashiers - there's no option but self-checkout. This is setting people up. Other stores I patronize simply have someone quietly tell you that you missed an item. Why can't Walmart? Obviously they get an extra bonus if someone makes a mistake - I believe they're forced to pay reparation directly to Walmart. How much would you like to bet Walmart has actually planned on this and included it in their budget. "We expect to make xxxx dollars this year on prosecuting shoplifters who don't properly scan items at self checkout". Walmart should be sued and forced to pay reparations to every person they've caught in their scheme. They're ruining lives. People can lose housing and/or jobs over an arrest. If a little common sense and compassion were used - seriously! You expect us to believe that someone paid for all their items but deliberately stole a bottle of bleach? Or a few other nondescript items? Right. Walmart knows very well what it's doing to people. They just do not care. Their focus is on profit. That company has no humanity at all.

Low wage workers are not the driving force of inflation.

She bagged all of her items without scanning a single thing and then walked out. I was next in line. I looked over at the cashier who was monitoring the situation. I could tell he was watching her. He smiled and did nothing. I didn't see any cops. I didn't see him on the phone. I saw her walk out of the store. I think it's very common.

The incident you have described is egregious! There is ABSOLUTELY & UNDENIABLY no way around the fact that the merchant (and their faulty or poorly designed software) is ENTIRELY AT FAULT! F*ck them! If you scan an item, there must be no way for the customer to remove it from the bill without authorization from a human employee to delete it, for whatever reason! I was going to ask how they even knew it wasn't on your receipt since you scanned it. But I was assuming that someone was watching you and forgot about their "receipt checkers" that clog up the exits AGAIN, right after we've already waiting in line once to be our own cashier for free...

The other part of this is the store doesn't give you enough room at the self checkout to unstack everything from your cart. If you are compelled to move things in and out of the cart this will surely happen.

This can be a problem if you pack a cart overfull, or in some places merely full. This is where you ask if there is a spare cart you can use. You never want to mix scanned and unscanned if you can help it. And ALWAYS read the screen. before you start, at each item scanned, at the final screen before payment, and so on.

I work at a supermarket, and its really obvious when observing people at Self Checkout when someone is trying to fake scan vs people who genuinely forget about an item. The workers are being extremely petty. It takes 2 seconds to go over and be like "sorry, it looks like this item didn't make it in let me scan it for you".

One evening I am at Wal-Mart ready to be checked out. There are 3 employees standing up front, but no one running a lane. One of them motions for me to use the self check out. I replied, "I do not work here." Then I was asked if I wanted to talk to the manager? I replied, "I am not looking for a job." One of the overworked employees used the self check out and rang up my entire cart. Guess she did not want me to talk to the manager after all.

I used to use the self checkout. That changed after hearing about a number of false accusations of shoplifting or accidental cases of it. At the end of the order the screen would ask for a rating of my experience. I would only give one star. Why? I guess I think I’m lousy at my job.

I once saw a women check out 200+ dollars worth of food at Kroger. She wasn't able to pay because it had her waiting for an associate. The employees were chatting it up, joking around, eventually the lady clearly fed up just walked out. 2 minutes later one of the employee finally went to the screen, said "what happened here" then appeared to void the whole order. Companies need to work on replacing all employees with robots, and have those robots check things before they leave the store to make sure there is no honest mistakes.

As someone who has primarily been a cashier for most of my work history, the self-checkouts are also terrible registers. They're finicky, slow, and difficult to use (compared to a normal register). Never use a self-checkout when a cashier is available. Additionally, I've seen a recent trend of self-checkouts not even having a monitoring station. That means there isn't even an employee watching what you scan and put in the baggage area. And often, the "monitoring" employee isn't even anywhere nearby - so if you need assistance, good luck finding whomever is supposed to be supplying that assistance.

I've caught those machines ringing up an item more than once consistently. I check my receipt every time before I leave the store.

This often happens because an item is waved back and forth across a scanner. JUST one pass. Some machines lag just a bit and you have to slow down and be patient. Every time that upc goes past that scanner it will try to ring it in. EVERY SINGLE TIME.

*Walmart is notorious for this bullshit. The same thing happened to my mom last year and she didn’t even checkout yet. She was doing some Xmas shopping while my step dad was out in the car with their dog. He came in to use the bathroom and on his way back out brought an item to my mom who was waiting in line. She put her purse over his present so he wouldn’t see it, then right when he was about to go back out security came, took her out of line and escorted her to a back room where they kept her for 45 min and bullied her into signing a document admitting to theft. They kept telling her she was going to get taken to lockup if she didn’t sign it. Luckily when she went to court my old soccer coach who is a lawyer was there for a client charged with the same thing and he took her on as a client for free and got the charges dropped. And the only reason that happened is because she hadn’t checked out yet. The judge told off the loss prevention officer who was there to rep Walmart and said he keeps hearing defendants saying how ridiculous they are and he’s starting to believe it*

As a previous walmart apa I never did this but because I wasnt getting enough stops an effort was made to get rid of me. We were pressured into getting as many cases as possible. Walmart has no number or goal specified for stops BUT ap managers and market wanted stores to basically compete... which is stupid because every store is different demographics wise. I got coached which is walmarts term for a write up for a flat bs reason. In email my manager said goto a certain manager for training on equipment as a 'just incase for holiday season'. Manager was busy, always. Kept trying to get with him but he was busy. I mentioned this to my manager which was brushed off. Randomly got called to the spark room over intercom. I was being coached for not being proactive enough to become trained on equipment... I explained, looked straight at my manager and said you told me to goto this person, I even followed up with you when they kept saying they were busy what was I suppose to do? She said well you werent being proactive enough. I 'think' the garden center manager is certified to train on equipment you could have went to him. Like bruh ive been here like 2 months idk 90% of the people that work here and hell she wasnt even sure who else could train me but expected me to know... nah thought about it over the next couple days and just quit. If thats how working at that place was gonna be along with the tons of other bs that I havent mentioned here I just dont want it besides I was likely going to be fired anyway. Setup for failure. Also walmarts open door policy is junk. PPTO was being revoked by managers then using days missed as a quick way to fire people. One dude open doored that because store manager didnt care. He got pulled into the store managers office because market told sm to deal with it. Idc how hard up you are for money working at walmart is a waste of time. Watched a lot of workers that had been there for 20+ years leave because of how the store was changing and becoming a giant drama factory.

Sue Walmart for making you do self checkout.

The biggest cause of shrink is actually mistakes at the register. Employee malfeasance vs theft are usually nearly the same, but it varies shifting back and forth every few years. Though with inflation outstripping min wage again and companies being cheap (why min wage was passed in the first place, companies weren't willing to pay their full time employees enough to support their families) I can see where employee theft might be on an uptick right now.

I have missed taking a small item out of my cart, in the cashier lane, and didn't notice until I was putting the cart away outside. I took it back in and paid for it. Another time, I bought 2 identical items, that fit inside one another, and the cashier rang it up as 1. I caught it and explained there were 2 items. The cashier thanked me, both times for noticing.

When I scan my items I just wait for the sound and then I know it scanned. Sometimes though the sound is very low or doesn’t work at all at the self checkout. I even double scanned some of my items and ended up paying a much higher grocery bill. To make matters worse the screen is always blurry for me and it’s very hard to see the actual screen. If my item doesn’t scan I’m sorry it didn’t scan. If I get arrested because something didn’t scan I hope Walmart shows the video to the police because every single item that was in my cart will pass through the scanner at the self checkout, it’s just that it’s very difficult for me to see the screen and hear the sounds.

If a store insists that 'unskilled' customers use the store scanners without training then shouldn't the store be responsible for the misuse of the system? Personally I refuse to shop in a store which does not offer checkouts.

This is not the only place I have heard of Walmart doing stuff like this. I will not use self checkout at Walmart anymore. If I don't have time to wait in line, I simply will buy the things elsewhere or not at all.

The Walmart on Tangerine has loads of self check outs, but normally only one or two cashiers available with long lines... The rest of their employees are running around filling pick up orders. It's chaos any given day. I dread the holiday season quickly approaching.

These self service checkouts are just about practical for people with hand baskets. However, for those with a full loaded shopping trolly, the process becomes a chaotic nightmare. The way the system is currently set up, there simply isn't enough room for customers to manage a full shopping trolly load, without slowing down the queue, and causing serious delays for other customers.

Never use a self checkout machine. Always go to a cashier unless the store wants to pay you for doing the cashier's job.

If the mistake is caught before customer leaves the store and the customer definitely has items that don't appear on their receipt then the customer should be giving the choice to either pay for the items or surrender them.If a customer can not be stopped before leaving the store they should be left alone unless it can be proven they refused to stop when approached while in the store.

@@olivergoncalves1217 The difference is what is legally called "INTENT", people who are doing what you described are doing so with the INTENTION of stealing, a mistake of one item is just simply a mistake.

Store employees cannot detain you. Whether you are in the right or wrong just keep going.

If you are detained ask for a lawyer IMMEDIATELY!! and plead the 5th!!

I have a question, how somebody can forget an item to be scanned? even go to those self service cashier system I just have few items that is likely hard to miss scan a item

I haven't had training on self check outs, I'm simply not qualified to operate them.. responsibility of any mistakes are on those who blindly let me "have a go"

Every person who is forced to use self-checkout should send Walmart a bill for the labor they had to provide to scan their items. No one should be forced to work for free. People should charge based on the number of minutes it took to scan the items at a rate of $1.25 per minute which equates to $75.00 per hour. As a sub-contractor people would be entitled to charge any amount they choose as their going wage-rate. It wouldn't take long for Walmart to change their policies.

If you don't like self checkout, either go to a cashier, or don't shop there.

-and I suppose you want to bill the supermarket for the petrol your car had to burn to haul you there?

I don’t use self checkout unless it’s a very small number of items easily checked, and I will avoid it entirely if I can. Any issues I would be hitting that help button quickly. Oh and especially not using it at Walmart

She never left the store use the T grizzly strategy 😂

"I was on my way out and two people came out of nowhere, grabbed my cart and forced me to follow them back to an interrogation room without telling me anything about what's going on." Ah so what I heard and apparently no one else did. Two employees restrained a customer (Battery) forced the customer to come with them (kidnapping) and forced the customer into a locked room? (False imprisonment) And that's just off of that testimony. Any footage of aggression from the employees increases the charges. This is so much more than just "They're calling everyone a thief" it's literally them seeing how far they can get away with something. No one but the police can do the things these employees did. Not even loss prevention can restrain you.

a FEW items? how small are the items?

I refuse to use self checkouts because Walmart wont share the wealth they save on Labor, and Im trying to save someones job. Ive noticed in poorer areas that the Managers insist on closing down normal checkouts at 8pm, Fayetteville GA, but in more Affluent Areas, Irmo SC, the Walmart has regular checkouts open til 10-11. This is just one more reason to not use Wal Mart or self checkout. In my area Wal Mart is farther away than the dollar stores and Food Lion grocery store. Wal mart is just a pain in the ass, especially on Saturday, and the cost savings isnt usually worth my time. The Enfrced Self Checkout problem is also why I avoid Home Depot and prefer Lowes again in Fayetteville GA.

That's why I make sure my x amount of items show, and if I have problems scanning, reach out to the pissed off employee, who barely wants to help 😂
