No shit its so annoying having to ask a worker to unlock the damn glass door just for $5-$10 item.
Especially when you can usually just walk across the parking lot to another retailer and pick up that $3 deodorant without bothering anybody.
At my Walgreens there are usually some people in the pharmacy, one person on the registers and maybe one person in cosmetics. I'm not bugging the only cashier to unlock toothpaste that costs double what it does anywhere else.
We went to Walmart to print something we needed since the staples near us was having issues with their machine. Pet cleaning spray $6-$15 dollars? Behind one of those locked cabinets of course.
There was a worker near by stacking some other items, but we didn’t bother since from what we could remember of Walmart, they never have the keys on them and have to chase someone down.
