>>21382190Local costco now requires membership card scan at entrance. They had wagies checking, sort of, half ass, before but now you have to hold barcode up to the thing to make it beep. They already had receipt check on exit so i wonder what is hoped to achieve by the tighter entry security. Are they having braindead thirdies wandering in, loading up carts and arriving at checkout only to find they can't buy without member card? It's not shoplifting as that is what the receipt check seeks to reduce.
