    Lotta liquor stores get robbed. This might help. Thoughts?

    - - - Updated - - -

    The four Calgary locations taking part in the project are:

    ACE Liquor TransCanada, 1440 52nd St. N.E.
    ACE Liquor Crossroads, 2148 18th Ave. N.E.
    Liquor Depot Montgomery, 5032 16th Ave. N.W.
    Liquor Depot North Hill, 1632 14th Ave. N.W.
    I'm only a regular at one of those.

    Here is the Edmonton version which shows stats.. https://globalnews.ca/news/7819916/c...s-id-scanning/

    Is it as good as they say? Or just throwing out stats?

    I think this is a great idea.

    Liquor store thefts are out of control.

    I’ve heard asking people for their ID is racist.

    Are you exempt from the fee based on the color of your skin?

    Isn't that what scanning the ID in the first place is trying to reduce already?

    Can @Buster pay extra to go to a store where there's a minimum annual income to gain entry? I'm thinking $175k or gtfo.

    That’s not nearly enough to keep out the Aspen riff raff

    I could care less. I give away less personal information everyday on the internet.

    Liquor Depot North Hill, 1632 14th Ave. N.W.

    The only liquor store I've been in where I had the luxury of watching a man buy a beer and promptly exit, only to come back in and return the same beer.
    "Said he bought the wrong one".

    Asked the cashier, "WTF?!"
    She said same guys come in, try to steal, we follow them around, they buy something so they think they're outsmarting everyone. Then return it.
