What a shopping experience

Your responsibility, your fault. Nuff said.

i'm sorry-- are you actually accusing walmart and it's security for
being responsible for your stuff because you live in la la land and
believe it won't get stolen?! wake up and smell the folgers. in this
day and age you turn your back for a second and your stuff is gone.
that's your fault, no one else's. adults take responsibility for
their own actions. i just pray to god you aren't the parent of a
small child.

Orhan-
Why would you trust leaving your merchandise and assume that the
security department would keep it safe? Next time this is an issue,
ask the greeter if they would mind keeping an eye on it, or ask a
friend or relative that you are shopping with.

While in a perfect world there would be no theft of property and we
could all leave our doors and windows unlocked and open at all times,
it is not.

It amazes me how many people leave their children in a cart and go off
to another aisle to shop, women leave their purses lying in the child
seat, open and then wander down the aisle or turn their backs to pick
something up they off a shelf behind them or down the aisle and yes
even purchases made in another department/store in their carts and
then walk away.

You need to learn to protect yourself and what is yours. Depending on
security and store personnel is just not realistic anymore...ANYWHERE!

This sounds awfully familiar to the person that shopped at Best Buy
and had his TV stolen.

This is completely your fault and you shouldn't be blaming Wal-Mart
for it. Watch your own stuff. My grandmother taught me that at a
very early age. NEVER leave your things unattended in public.

Your shopping cart and the contents from another retailer were your
responsibility - - not Walmart security's.

Security isn't responsible for your belongings. They try to be
responsible for Walmarts belongings. They are helpless to help you.My
husband was Walmart security for a while. They literally aren't
allowed to do anything about it.

You should count your blessings that you weren't shopping with a small
child.

And this doesn't have to do with it being a "safe area" or not, you
have to realize that crimes happen in the nicest of towns.

You leave your cart unattended and you blame Walmart? Is personal
responsibility really that dead? Security doesn't need to be improved
but perhaps not allowing idiots shop in the store would be a good
start.

Unfortunately they can't catch everything because there are no
camera's in areas where the shoplifting is low, and even if their
security was able to catch the person that stole your stuff on camera
that person is probably halfway across the world by the time they find
out what happened. Either that or they have already put your items on
ebay to sell.

This is one of the silliest complaints I have read. If you can't
watch your own property, what makes you think someone who has no
responsibility to watch your property will do any better?

You should be writing a letter to yourself, complaining that you can't
be trusted. That would make sense.

How come you did not watch your stuff closly? It is not their fault
you were careless with your stuff.

I feel for you, but I will tell you the same thing I tell EVERYONE
that I hear this from, and FYI it annoys the hell out of me to have to
respond to a call where someone loses something in this manner. Keep
an eye on your belongings! Do NOT walk away from your cart, do not
leave your purse unattended, etc. It's YOUR responsibility to keep
things together!

Sorry you should have kept a better eye on your cart.

Ok, It is obvious that you left your shopping cart alone, so how is
this walmart's fault?

This scenario happens at my store too. Most of the time, someone
nearby walks back to their cart and puts something back in their cart.
They realize it is not their cart later, and dump the cart.

They wont try to find the owner, they dont take it to customer
service, they abandon it. That is just how alot of people are. They
are the same people that change their mind on items and dump it in the
wrong place throughout the store.

The cameras are installed for two reasons, shoplifting and store
accidents. They are placed in high theft areas, and where accidents
take place.

Do not blame walmart for you not keeping a watchful eye on your cart.



Good Day

Most stores have signs saying they are not responsible for lost or
stolen belongings. I do agree that it sucks, but you are out of gas
here.

It is up to you to mind your personal belongings while shopping. Many
stores even have signs to that effect.

Were you in the vicinity of the cart when it was taken? If you had
bags in there with items you purchased from another store, you really
needed to keep an eye on the cart. White Plains is a city, and like
in any other city, you have to be aware of your surroundings.

Cereal numbers. You crack me up.

You can't describe the thief, so what are they looking for? Some
items in a cart? Can you describe the cart?
See the problem? It doesn't matter how good security may be, we have
a personal responsibility to watch our own stuff!!

You left your purchases in a shopping cart to go to another store?
Really?
