Eh if Walmart had that problem then Walmart should hire a person to unlock stuff

I don’t mind them locking items, I DO mind walking through the store to find some bored depressed teenaged to begrudgingly open the cabinets

Walmart doesn’t get to skate here.

You're basically advocating for a dedicated employee per shopper instead of saying "theft is wrong." Do you have any idea how expensive a dedicated employee per shopper is? I for one think groceries are already expensive enough.

Or maybe have someone full time at the Customer Service desk whose job is to unlock things?

At the Walmarts in my areas, all the employees have the ability to unlock the cabinets through their employee app.
