    My grocery store has added an automated narc cam that plays back a video of you putting the item into the bag when it thinks you didn't scan it.

        From what I can tell it seems pretty hit or miss and it doesn't actually do anything with the information - no one tried to check my receipt when I triggered it.

      Wal Mart near me has this

      But they have a scan gun I just use on 'everything', then bag up after

      Seems a bit self defeating lmao

      When do they play this video? While you are in the middle of scanning items through the self-checkout or when you complete it? Is it accompanied by a frowny face or some other sign of disapproval to shame you?

        After you bag the offending item. The video plays and a loud voice passive-aggressively reminds you to make sure you've scanned everything before bagging.

      I'm pretty sure I forgot to scan something but the person just waved me through on a similar system here
