I almost got arrested there because I dropped my receipt in the Urinal, and they wouldn't believe me. That was fun. I try not to shop there, but that really cemented it.

Is the title not editable? The version I’m seeing on lemmy.world had me worried I was stroking out :/
is there not a mininum for shoplifting to be illegal ?
It would be state law depending.
Even if it is, "loss protection" departments now just track it until they have enough to make a charge stick. What a lot of corpos do is track theft though until they have enough incidents to exceed that threshold. This is tracked via loyalty cards, card numbers, facial recognition, and license plate readers.
Allegedly gait analysis could be used as well.
dystopian asf tactics... this mainly just affects poor people.
It's part of why masks becoming commonplace during covid was so cool, and the epitome of freedom from that bullshit. But there was a crowd of people who constantly speak against their own best interests in the name of freedumb who said otherwise.

This is your daily reminder to steal anything you can from large corporations at every possible opportunity. Got five identical items? Whoops, you only seem to have scanned four of them. Are four of them the brand name, and one of them the cheaper store brand? Shit, it seems you scanned the store brand one ~~five~~ four times. They just looked so similar, after all. How confusing!
