I'm sure if you check, you don't actually have to ever open the case. I do know some laws in the US favour the merchant. Up here in Canada, the home of the free, I can tell the Walmarts and Costcos to kiss my ass. They have no right whatsoever to check any of my belongings. Including those which I have bought and paid for at their store. They're MY property, so hands off. I don't stop at Costco for a stamping or receipt check. I don't do it at Best buy. I don't do it at Walmart.

They can feel FREE to come after me in the parking lot. They can feel free to call the police - I will supply the phone. American Neo-Nazi companies sure do have messed up "policies" - so much so that some of their employees believe they're "lawful"
