I never let them check my bags either, guess what leagally they cant make u, unless there is valid justification such as survelience video or a eye witness account to show that you took something you didnt pay for.

just because the store is private property doesnt mean they can leagally invade your privacy and search your bags store bought or personal bags.

the only time i let them check my bag and reciept is when there door alarm goes off cause a dvd or cd i bought was not properly scaned to deactivate the sensor, that in my opinon is the only time they should be entitled to look through a persons bag.
they are not law enforcement they are not the sherriff dept or police.
they are minimum wage, high school kids who more than likely steal from there own store themselves.
like the other person said above, the majority of theft in retail is employee related.
you never see employees getting chased out of the store or asking to see there reciepts when they leave or get hassled when they get refunds.
but yet thats who is responsible for the majority of retail theft

by the way i have never been chased after when i leave without letting them check my bag,
