      Yes i did steal that minidisc player, but that was after the fact. When i went in that other time, it was well over a year so they have no idea. I went in for a minimal amount of time, and made sure i was in open spots, asking help from peoplle that worked there. and yes i took the time to do this as an expirament, which took an hour out of my life. Its not like im bitching o they think im stealing...its their policy to check everyones bag

      Anyways stealing th at minidisc player was classic, I went in dressed very nice with some glasses on and when someone came over to ask me if i needed help I asked in the dorkiest of voices, is this where all the tape players are? the guy said he would be right back and he never came back because of my nerdy persona i was projecting. Sorry for wasting your tax dollars, but i tihnk the cops pretty much waste enough of your money without me there..go eat a donut

        you should take best buy deep , sue their asses, you have a legit case in your defense. Take those corporate punks deep, tell them your emotionally damaged now and cant go into another department store anymore.

          Yeah, I think they have to sufficient "grounds" to legally search belongings or vehicles (at least in Canada or in the United States). If they illegally search your belongings, vehicle or home and find drugs or whatever, no matter what they find, you can't be charged for it. It'll be thrown out in court, because it was an illegal search. For example, if a cop pulls you over for speeding he can obviously give you a ticket, but he can't search your car just because "you looks suspicious". He needs a better reason, just like stupid idiot mall cops can't search your bag just because "you look suspicious".

          Of course Border Patrol is another story. You gots no rights at da border.

                Ska you're going to get in trouble for defacing gov't property on that one.

                Pulling the stealth mission on the unsuspecting Best Buy employee...it was cool when you stuck it to the minimum wage security girl, but when upper management started the static and brought the fuzz, it was just classic. Best Buy just wanted to search your personal bag; when I leave Wal-Mart with a cart of stuff (bags and all) one of the greeters ask: "may I see your receipt sir?" What the fuck is that? They don't ask everyone for their receipt, and I doubt it's systematically every 5th person gets hassled. So I must have that criminal appeal or something. I'm not sure if it was the oversized Phat Pharm Jacket and Du-rag I was wearing or not, but I was offended nonetheless. Consequently, I understand your motives behind this task.

                      well in some stores in Spain you can not go inside the store with a bag , security of the center have to precinted or closed with a cristal bag, but anyway if they want to see it inside you must showit , otherwise they?ll call the police

                        I used to work In guitar Center here in Columbus. And everytime we'd have a guy or girl come in with a book bag we'd always put it behind the podium up front, that way there was no reason to search through their bag on the way out.

                        Well any dj who has come into one of the stores knows what's up with all the regulations that GC has.

                        Tien, man you must get really bored sometimes to go and do that.

                          I think you guys are missing the point here. Stores now have that, "guilty until proven innocent policy." Costco does it and so does Fry's here in California. I let Costco do it because it's a membership club and you'd get dropped if you walked out w/out them checking the receipt. I even had bought only 1 item once and just bolted on out and was chased by their receipt checker. I just handed her my receipt and kept walking. At Fry's I always just walk right by the guys. If you haven't done anything wrong, you have every right to just walk on by and ignore them. If they want to call the cops, let them, but if you're innocent, why worry?

                            It's called profiling.

                            When I go to Walmart all dressed up after work, I never get searched. When I go dressed in a hat and baggy pants or something, it seems like I'm searched every other time. They just think "they look like a thief. I'm want to look good in front of my manager so I can keep my $7.75/hour job." then decide to act like the door king/queen.

                            Fuck 'em. They all jealous old dumbasses that either weren't smart enough to save for retirement or have no friends, so they're stuck watching the younger crowd live it up. Either way it's their own fault.

                                the topic headline is "Stores checking your reciepts when you leave... "....and you post something totally non-relevant to "checkin store receipts"....
                                Many people would sooner die than think; In fact, they do so.
