Walgreens, 2023
According to February 2 article "Walgreens Store Bans Purses and Bags to Prevent Shoplifting—Will Others Follow?", in order to prevent shoplifting and theft, Walgreens has been quite consistent in their practice of locking up products.
It would appear that at least one Walgreens location has come to the conclusion that the anti-theft procedures already in place are insufficient.
The local newspaper claims that clients are now greeted at night by a sign from the administration of the establishment that reads:
"Welcome to our new location!" "Attention please At this time, the business will not be able to accommodate ANY big purses or bags brought in by customers. I apologize in advance for any difficulties this may create."
