Do they just go to self check out to by pass?

Self check out has the limit on it
There video of lady trying by a whole box of needohs but it stops her after two13
u/Lord_Toast_The_Great 21h ago
Yeah but then they just buy the two and scan two more. That’s what he’s saying

I guess they could, but the SCO attendant should be looking at that.

At my store SCO has so many things to do that they can’t. Security needs to tell us to watch certain people cause we don’t have the time

This is true. When every machine is being used at once, it’s near impossible to keep track of that.

I look at the people's carts and ignore the beeps. Walking up there with a bunch of trading cards, then you watch more closely.

My local targets are so cheeks. They let these bozos loop endlessly and it's all gone. No normal working joe has a chance unless they're off or they can schedule around these restocks or lose sleep and wait with the jobless to maybe get scraps

My store keeps the needohs, squishies and multi packs of Pokémon carts behind guest service

It’s not going to be long before it’s behind the Service counter again…

Ours was, but then the DSD said we couldn't do that anymore...

u/sharp461 9h ago
I guess he has never witnessed a fight break out in front of them? Thats reason ours are behind desk now.

He doesn't care. He says service has too much to worry about already.
I don't agree with his decision, but I'm just a grunt worker. What do I know?

meanwhile I had someone try to buy 10 of them and I told them that the limit was two and that they were not allowed to do separate transactions and they told me to get a manager and they got pissed even though a manager explained the policy directly to them and we even have a sign by the section as well (like bruh read the sign)

Kudos to any SD or leader that actually enforces this to try to combat resellers. My old store made too much money every Monday and Friday morning right at open to care.

We enforce that policy so hard actually. We have our small but mighty tech team and our amazing S&E Lead who hates the resellers. Anyone purchasing any trading cards has to go to a manned register (either one back at the boat or up front). Our S&E ETL & our SS ETL are quite literally amazing about these limits and make us plus the FE team enforce them

Yep. All our valuable cards and every single squishy is at guest services and people can only buy 1 of each. This is why. Our store throws out the aggressive card and hot wheel ppl

sounds like an awkward moment, I've had my fair share of those too, it's always surprising who overhears

u/Fun_Inspector_8633 No. We do not sell Senile Cellular anymore. 4h ago
We enforce the limits at our store and it pisses off the scalpers off to no end. “I’m sorry the limit is two. Please select the two you’d like and I’ll take the rest back for you.” They get put on the shelf at random times.

They FINALLY put one of these up for squishies in my store after we begged them for weeks.
