I guess they don't open OUT, so that shoplifters can't exit with carts full of stolen goods. They DO allow you to enter the store with your cart. Has anyone else seen these in their local WM's?

Interesting! If the gates don't open "out" how do people with "paid for" goods get out?
Certainly they don't check your receipt.
There should be some sort of Constitutional Amendment to prevent unreasonable search without probably cause!

so imagine going in the doors to the store, the end of the check out lanes and aisle to the customer service, bathrooms, etc. are in line with the new gates. the gates open into the rest of the store (check out lines are on either side of them). you would have to leave through the checkout lanes. the exits are not gated.

here is a picture from a news site:

There is shoplifting at our WM multiple times a week if not daily. some are caught leaving, some are not, but have pictures of them. I notices a SO stand (not sure what to call it, a standalone platform raised high, in the parking lot this weekend. Lot's of "interesting" people to be sure.
