The woman in the video was stopped by an employee and asked to show her receipt on her way out of aWalmart .
“I got all these groceries in a sack, and you think I am stealing a $3 bottle of water? I don’t think so. You can’t check my receipt,” she asked.
And when the store worker explained that she was simply doing her job, the shopper knew what to say in response.
“No, I am doing your job,” she shot back.
“See, they need to have you over on a register. Y’all all got grandma on the registers with 15 people behind her, and nobody is checking. Don’t bother me today,” she said, walking out of the store.
The influencer who shared the video wholeheartedly agreed with the shopper.
