A lawyer revealed that retailers like Walmart do not have the legal right to force customers to show their receipts, The U.S. Sun has previously reported.
Legal expert Alex Colangelo added that customers were therefore able to walk away when asked by employees.
Colangelo added that shoppers must show their receipts at stores like Costco due to their memberships rules.
He explained that an agreement to allow employees to check receipts is often in the terms and conditions signed by customers before they can shop in those stores.
Other Walmart customers have also taken to social media to share their negative thoughts on receipt checks, The U.S. Sun has previously reported.
One shopper took to TikTok to complain that she was stopped twice for a receipt check as she left the store.
