    The point is they know from your app login who opened which case when, so if shit goes missing, they’ll know who stole it. That’s the point.

        I guess if they discover shrink, they’ll have a log of when it was accessed, and could cross reference camera footage, then track down the account and blacklist it or prosecute… no loss prevention is going to do all this lol.

        there are regular inventories, and most likely smart cases with time recording on tap (most even low digit inventory is rfid chipped these days, so even if it doesn’t set off an alarm when taken out of the store, that shit is being recorded when it triggers)

        I can’t wait until store shelves are set up like those janky pressure sensitive hotel minibars

      Genuine question, do I need to show an ID to make a CVS account? Use a real name? How could they reliably link the digital account to a person?

        yeah i dunno the ins and outs of that, but the app most likely reports on your devices iemi, so regardless of what throwaway email address you use to sign up, if you bought that device, the cell company has your deets, also if they’re making you connect to the cvs wifi, then their router will have that devices MAC address, and most like grab it’s iemi information as well
