Do you legally have to show Walmart your receipt?


Do you legally have to show Walmart your receipt? Shoppers are not legally required to show receipts at any retailer. But refusing to show your receipt could give a store probable cause to detain you, as my colleague Gloria Dawson has reported.


Can I refuse to show my receipt?

Should I Show My Receipt When Asked at a Store? Assuming the store doesn't have probable cause to suspect you of shoplifting, you can invoke your rights and refuse to show your receipt to the worker at the door when asked (as long as it's not a membership store).
