   No, he would buy the chips just after he walked in, then walk around the store and leave with goods in the bag.

   A security guard once told me that the worst shoplifters were the ones that worked in the store.

   True. They are a lot harder to catch, because they use drop spots and stashes and outside accomplices within the store, and they are aware of personnel schedules and internal movements. We are fully trained to handle that, though, and they don't get far before being nabbed. I've personally arrested dozens and dozens of employees.

    And a Walmart near me cashiers were loading their friends cards without receiving any money. This went on for a while before they were caught.

    Loss prevention has access to the hardcopy receipt rolls inside the register, so it's very easy to detect. Just roll back the transactions on that cash and viola.

    Yes I didn't understand how they didn't catch it right away.Did you work for a chain or private store.

    I remember the time a money guy at Walmart loaded my paycheck onto my card twice on accident. I got to keep it all too.

    And nobody questioned the guy aimlessly eating chips and not paying for the bag as he walked out with nothing else in hand?

    Employees are trained not to prevent theft in the store. Only loss prevention is authorized to make contact.

    I saw a big big big woman eating a bucket of chicken on a walmart bench right by the scanners before you enter the store.
    
    I think if you "look the part" so to speak, they leave you alone out of fear.

    Well it sounded like he did it multiple times and got away with it.
