Oh it just occurred to me why you're saying the thing about buying something. Even when I shop like a regular customer, I still decline to show my receipt, both as personal practice and to help destigmatizate it for anyone who is actually stealing
I dl not show a receipt at places where I do not lift, which since I am retired from being a rapscallion means everywhere. The only time I can feel comfortable treating security personnel with basic human decency is when I view them as cosigning my theft.
By the way what happens if you leave without showing them the receipt at costco? Do they straight up kill you with a gun? Do all the wypipo descend on you in a mob? (Never shopped there it's too far from home)
Lol idk I've never shopped at Costco. I did experiment with sneaking in just to see if I could, but I didn't get anything
Lol I did that the other day actually by mistake. I went into this big box restaurant supply store since I was convinced I could somehow buy an appliance for merely 120% what you get online (wrong they're all $700 for no reason it was hilarious). Ate a bunch of free samples, rare tuna and stuff I was like damn, then on the way out they were like you can't buy the overpriced appliance without a membership and ur not even supposed to be in here.
What I mean is, did you get any meatballs tho?
