    Retail stores are likely studying the effect that shoplifting has on other customers though. When it’s brazen, it can make people fearful for their own safety, and even less likely to shop at the same place.

      You seem to think that Walmart gives a single thought to how their customers feel. Have you ever been to a Walmart? Not exactly the high end of the retail experience.

      About the only store lower on the “this place has a nice feeling” is a Dollar Tree, and even then I’ve been in some Dollar Trees that were nicer than the nearby Walmart.
