Giant Bans Large Bags in DC Stores to Curb Theft

Giant grocery stores in Washington, D.C. have banned large bags to combat theft, a move that has sparked controversy among customers. The policy, which prohibits bags larger than 14 inches by 14 inches by 6 inches, aims to address the millions of dollars lost annually to shoplifting. While some customers support anti-theft measures, others feel unfairly targeted, especially those with baby bags. The policy is part of broader efforts to enhance store security, including hiring more guards and reducing store hours.
