These cameras replay instances where items aren't scanned, aiming to improve efficiency and reduce theft incidents.

While some customers find the technology amusing, others express concerns about increased surveillance and privacy issues.

The initiative follows a sharp rise in shoplifting, prompting retailers to implement various anti-theft measures.
