Whew - what a relief! I was not 100% certain to be honest, but you are absolutely right - its on the interwebs, so it is definitely true. Very excited!

I change the oil in my cars, but send my wife to our local oil change place for her car. The owner is a friend....so I figured I would give him some business.

I just walk out with my receipt in hand, they don't ask for it then.
Also, if this bothers you that much walk out with the product in that store's bag, I've definiitely been stopped by walking out without grabbing a bag but with recept on hand but never with a bag from that store

Yup - it's part of the membership agreement. You don't have the same obligation to a store open to the public. Sams/Costco are technically private.

An old friend of my worked Loss Prevention about 10 years ago... Not allowed to physically touch anyone regardless of how positive they were that the person was stealing.

Now places like SF don't even arrest someone unless the theft is more than $950. It's just a ticket

Worked in grocery 30 years ago and we would have routine fights in and out of store and chase people down.

Shit, thank God you weren't there when I was a teen changing price tags & getting video games & football cards on the cheap.

I finally got caught in Wal Mart & they took me in the back & my Grandparents followed (They were waiting in the car for me & the guy didn't stop me till after I left the store.) I refused to sign anything & they told me I can never come back.

My bare-handed kill count started skyrocketing when they put twist-tops on beer bottles.

Never killed anyone, but I've been shot and still carry the metal in me.

Makes for interesting conversation whenever I get an X-Ray.

Also found out I wasn't Superman like I thought I was at that age!

Same here. Shot at 9 different occasions throughout the years. Hit once
Ill see if I can find some pics of my car (back then) with the 10 bullet holes. Times are MUCH calmer now.
