    I'd assume that the cart checking occurs at sams because you can basically run all over the store unimpeded after you go through the register. There is nobody around to stop you and it's not hard to have someone pop right by the door and throw a gizmo in your cart on the way out.

    At least that's what I'd assume those checkout people are looking for, because they don't seem to check the food items that carefully.
    And there was a clerk at the door. http://www.wpri.com/dpp/news/local_wpri_seekonk_sams_club_computer_theft_200910 19_nek

    Just watch what happens in the video above. This is exactly why you don't want to wait parked in the fire lane when your spouse or kids run into the store. This is what theft or robbery suspects do. The police or security may see you and your plate number will be entered into the system as a possible suspect in any past or future theft or robbery.
    I worked at a large retail complex. When a car was spotted parked in the fire lane with a driver waiting with the engine running, it triggered a series or security measures.
