I try not to shop at Walmart too much, but its only a mile from my house, so last night I ran over to grab a couple of things I forgot on my regular grocery trip. I got in a checkout line behind two youngish Latino men, who were buying a weeks groceries. It was a big order of the sort of things single working men are likely to buy. We chitchatted a bit, they put the divider on the belt when there was room for my small order, and then the cashier handed them their receipt and very nicely told them THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO KEEP THEIR RECEIPT OUT TO TO BE CHECKED AT THE DOOR.
After they walked away, I asked the cashier if this was some kind of a new policyI dont go there too often, so it could have been. She shrugged and muttered something about a policy of checking some people. She looked embarrassed. She didnt tell me to keep my receipt out. Im a white grandmother typeapparently not some people.
