How I Think Grocery Operations and Retail Stores Will Run Beyond 2026

 First, I think most will have evolved into a private-club operation where you need membership cards.  That means a security entry point as you enter.  No membership (tied to your credit card)....no entry. 

Second, as you conclude your trip....it'll involve a security guy checking your receipt and bag.  

Third, I think a number of grocery operations will be out of a warehouse situation, where they come by and deliver what you ordered....keeping you out of their warehouse as much as possible.

Fourth, I think from the remaining stores trying to run as a public operation....prices will be inflated by as much as fifty percent because of theft problems....making them less desirable to shop at.

Finally, 'red' states probably will put very serious laws into effect where 14-day stays in jail will be a fairly common thing for retail theft. This will eventually convince people to pack up and move out of these states.

re -- retail theft
A two-week 'stash-your-trash' in a comfy cell sounds all well and good... except in a shari'a area.
We might see a significant amount of dismemberment, and that might dissuade return engagements.
