Walmart’s New Checkout Cameras: Yay or Nay?

Next time you’re grabbing groceries at Walmart, don’t be surprised if you spot cashiers wearing body cameras. The retail giant is testing these gadgets to help staff handle tricky customer moments, but shoppers are buzzing about privacy. With theft on the rise, more stores are adding extra eyes and security. So, if you’re checking out, smile—you might be on camera! Would this make you feel safer or just weirded out? #Business #LocalBusiness #Walmart

Why not?? If you are honest, it shouldn't matter

if you are not doing anything wrong, then you should NOT have an issue. the only people that dislikes the new anti theft cams are those who steal.

I love self-checkouts, and I am honest, so no problems with cameras. Theft makes prices higher for everyone.

I never use the cashier they seem to be acting like they are in competition with others to get as many scans within an hour. They don’t bag groceries the customers do that . They complain how hard they work. Total BS. I always use self service.

if you're not doing anything wrong then you should not be offended. You've been on camera since you entered the parking lot. Quit being so dramatic, you're not gping to stop shopping there because long story short, it's convient, and iveral prices are better with a few exceptions.

you are always watched with cameras at Walmart. they are all over the store. why get upset with employees using them. if you have an employee that is doing something wrong, they also have a record of that. it can work both ways

it's a private business so they can do what they wish on the private property but up to us not to shop there.
