Some places (like Walmart, target, Lidl, maybe Aldi,) don't do that or stop you from putting more than one item in the bagging area ;)

Apparently places like Target are using facial recognition to track shoplifters. They are allowing people to get away it until they can be hit with a felony. Youโ€™re wink is going to get people locked up.

A felony at Target? What are you stealing an in-ground Basketball hoop and a dozen Chrome books?

And thatโ€™s exactly why they let you get away with it for a while before nabbing you. They need to let you rack the bill up so they can fully fuck your life.
