HA!!!!! I experienced the wheel lock at HEB over the summer when I got my cart, always go in by the pharmacy but wanted a watermelon so took my empty cart across the store and out the opposite side outside to where they had the watermelons - just like you said, immediately this little chick came running out with that device and unlocked my cart and apologized. I was wondering about that so that makes sense they're triggering that shit from their LP office.PLX wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 1:24 amYep.Watson503 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 1:15 am I went to HEB to do the majority of our grocery shopping last week and a dozen and a half eggs were $4.46 so I figured I'd wait and buy them at Aldi.

I get groceries at the original HEB in Kerrville, and the kids they hire to bag your groceries are like NPC's.
I pay for my cart full of food and as soon as I hit the exit door threshold, one of the fucking wheels on the shopping cart locks-up.. you know, like it does when you run over a little rock or something.
So, there I am looking down at the wheels, trying to back the cart off whatever I think I've run onto, when this woman comes outta nowehere with a digital device in her hands.
She explains they (whoever is watching on video surveillance) decide to trigger the wheel lock on my cart.![]()
I'm like.. "What ?"
She explains all the shopping carts now have one wheel that's radio controlled and they can lock it. She goes, "It looks like you went through a checkout lane." And she unlocks the wheel.
I'm just looking at her and going, "What ?" She further explains, "We've had so many people come in here and fill a cart, then just push it out the door without paying."
So then I go, "Well, whoever is watching me and decided to lock my shopping cart also watched me go thru the fucking checkout lane and pay $250.."
She had no answer for that.![]()
