If anyone loves saving money and efficiency it’s them.

[–] Beaver@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 months ago

Yeah they’re my favourite, hopefully we can pressure them to drop the 8%.

But their branding is red?

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

So is Target's, and they're always getting shit from Repugs for supporting LGBTQ+. What's your point?

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 0 points 4 months ago

It's a joke because republicans are red. Calm down boy.

Not really surprised ...it is just a gay Walmart.

[–] Beaver@lemmy.ca 33 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I beg to differ when their prices are more reasonable, they treat their workers/customers better and they don’t have a big brother cctv watching your every move with the line that says “you’re being watched”

Eh they are starting to treat their guests like thieves though.

Check ID before entering

Check ID when checking out

Check ID in self Check, while they check you out

Check receipt on exit despite their own employees checking you out.

It's wearing thin

[–] psvrh@lemmy.ca 17 points 4 months ago (1 children)

They've always done this: they require a membership, and they check that when you go, and scan it when you check out.

If you don't want to shop at a store that doesn't use a membership system, there's other options who also treat you like a criminal. Loblaw, for example, has man-traps at the exit, which is a lot worse than a perky co-worker drawing a smiley on your receipt.

[–] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

There are things that actually matter but you're upset about clubs checking membership lists. Ok.

[–] Gerudo@lemm.ee -4 points 4 months ago

Yikes I was just complaining about some new policies there, not calling on riots and boycots.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

I think post-covid shoplifting and specifically organized crime pushed a lot of this.

still prefer the way costco spends the money I give it on taking care of their people instead of dumping them onto the public to care for.
