The door won't open yo let you out unless you scan the receipt.
A petition has been launched urging Loblaw to remove receipt scanners from its stores.
Earlier this month, the grocery giant confirmed that it was testing receipt scanners at some of its stores in Ontario to combat thefts.
Shoppers paying through self-checkout will be required to scan their receipts on a device to confirm that they paid for their groceries. If a receipt is successfully scanned, a metal gate will open, allowing customers to leave.
Leadnow — an organization that aims to engage the Canadian public on political and social issues — has now started a petition, encouraging shoppers to sign and urge Loblaw's CEO, Per Bank, to rescind the receipt scanners in stores.
"New scanners preventing shoppers from exiting unless they scan a receipt, are creating confusion, bottlenecks, and [an] unjustified sense of embarrassment for Loblaws customers," reads the petition.
Leadnow says that Loblaw executives "deserve to be in the hot seat" as they have "more than doubled their profits since the pandemic – while increasing grocery prices by 22.5 per cent since 2020."
The petition allows signees to send a pre-written letter directly to Loblaw CEO Per Bank, who took on the role in November 2023, replacing predecessor Galen Weston.
