Why is this news? If you're entering private property, you're agreeing to play by the rules of the store. One of those rules may very well be that they reserve the right to check your bags and your receipt to ensure that you aren't shoplifting. If you're concerned that this is equivalent to being treated as a criminal, then vote with your wallet rather than a polemic on how a store is infringing on your "right and freedoms".
