I am generally not hard to get along with, but I will not stand for that. I was never a regular Walmart shopper, but I was accosted once and asked for my receipt. I politely told the fellow no and he threatened to call the police. I pulled out my phone and told him I would call for him. He asked me to leave. We must all collectively stand up to this foolishness where ever it happens or it will only increase.
Here, here. I whole-heartedly agree. I've gotten into the habit of shopping Wal-Mart late at night when they usually don't have a person assigned to receipt checks. But on the rare occasion that I have to go there during the day, I've taken to politely say "no" when they ask to see my receipt. Most of the time they'll let it go unchallenged, but if they insist, I'll say, "No Sir, because that's an insult and I'm in no way obligated under law to show you my receipt. If you have reason to suspect I've committed a crime then call a cop. Otherwise I'll be on my way."
