Everything was so fucking expensive. They also put in those refrigerators where it has the ads and they're just as fucking awful and weird as the pictures would have you believe. Also, the big cctv showing you as you go down the aisle and check out are fucked. At self check out you can no longer mute it so it has to talk to you. Finally, they hired security to stand at the entrance of the store which is gross. edit: Some stuff was also locked in a cabinet

The devil is in that store. I'm so fucking pissed.

My local supermarket recently installed automatic gates like they have at train stations that can they presumedly lock if they suspect you of 'stealing' their criminally priced goods.

The West is so free!

oh fuck one time they had one of the wheels of a cart lock up and had someone check my cart because they suspected I shoplifted (I didn't)

Become ungovernable by doing deadlifts until you can simply carry a cart full of groceries

Lock-tite or Gorilla Glue in a parking lot will make having those types of carts REALLY expensive.

You should see the article this image comes from. Basically the whole thing labels people who don't like the surveillance as "weird conspiracy theorists" and "most people don't care" and "It's a private establishment they have a right to protect their stock"

I fucking hate this country

They tried that at my local store and someone just broke down the gate rat-salute-2 Then they tried GPS locking the shopping carts so someone stole all of them
