If a person walks out of wal-mart with a stolen item at hand and the greeter asks for a receipt but the person continuously walks out of the store without showing them and then drives away in a car that was parked out front...what are the chances of a camera getting them on tape and following through with catching them? Wouldn't they need both Surveillance proof, and a license plate to catch the theft?
The thing is, if the greeter was only going by instinct that it was stolen because they were not shown a receipt. Are they likely to follow up on the incident even with all the busy holiday shoppers?

Cameras are always installed at the entrance and exit of Wal-Mart. Thus, a person who stole something will likely be apprehend.

From someone who knows (take that as you will) the greeter is not responsible for stopping shoplifters (that is what you are). There are security people watching the cameras in the store and in the parking lot. There are also undercover security (some off duty cops) who's job is to apprehend and convict little weasels like you. This is more for the protection of patrons but it also works for sneak thieves as well. Of course , if you get caught you will never be able to use a Wal-mart ever again for any reason. You'd be better off asking Wal-mart for a job and doing the right thing.

it's all caught on surveillance cameras...both inside the store and out....the tapes will be examined to determine whether that person went through checkout or not and they can easily follow you out into the parking lot and as you drive away...they will then show evidence of the person on TV and someone knowing them will turn them in anonymously for the reward

hahaha, what did you do?
they usually catch you on camera, but won't do anything about it. Walmart makes too much money to care about one insident. but if they do catch you coming back in the store ever. then they will arrest ya
