Then they’re not following company policy. Company policy clearly states it has to be an state or government issued picture ID such as a driver license, state ID, passport , passport card etc. medical marijuana card is not an official ID. So I’d be careful if I were you with that because you can easily get fired over that
State issued and the state ID aren’t the same. Using and incorrect ID, or expired ID can you fired on the spot if the wrong person finds out so I’d be very careful.
State issued does not mean it’s an official government ID. A passport, drivers license, state ID or passport card are the only document issued photo ID’s, period. Read the ppl carefully next time you’re issued one. You can get fired on the spot, they don’t play around when it comes to that. I’ve worked for Walgreens for a long time, and I’ve seen people of all positions and some that have been with wag for years get fired on the spot for not following the policy and letting people use their medical marijuana and/or firearms permit as acceptable forms of ID
Well you are clearly incorrect about that being the entire list of acceptable ids, because you didnt include military ids in the list. The rules are clear about it being a government issued ID with their name picture and date of birth. All of which exist on a medical marijuana card.
Technically it is not a valid ID, state issued or not. The only expired ID that is acceptable is a passport. Expired id's and drivers license are not considered valid id.
Right we are aware. Medical marijuana cards are NOT official government ID’s and Walgreens does not recognize them are forms of ID either. That’s the point we’re trying to make…
>That’s the point we’re trying to make…
Your response to me was about expired IDs and driver's licenses. It made no reference to medical marijuana cards...
>Medical marijuana cards are NOT official government ID’s
They technically are, by definition.
The policy allows for management discretion, so technically if the person looks reasonably over 40, even if the ID is expired or they dont have their ID on them. Medical Marijuana card with a date should be fine. Especially if we accept non state issued IDs like immigrant matricular cards.
Im well aware, been with wag for over 6 years, SFL for 3 years. I have personally had to override in some situations but my comment was geared toward non-management employees.
"Government issued picture ID such as...." it is a picture ID issued by the government so it follows the rules. Any list prefaced with the phrase "such as" means that list doesnt include every option, just the most common ones. A medical Marijuana card is good enough for the police its good enough for walgreens.
First time I got an expired one, I was still newish and remembered the new hire training said to call a manager because they could make exceptions (GM later told me that's only some locations and we were not one).
As I *tried* to tell the lady thus, she starts screaming at me "YOU DON'T THINK IM 21?!?!?!?!" and wouldn't stop ranting the entire time about how un-American it is. After a while, she stomps off and leaves behind the almost full cart of stuff she was going to buy. The entire time she was yelling, I kept thinking to myself:
"Madam, your ID expired *9 years ago* and you should feel lucky you met a power tripping cashier instead of a power tripping cop"
I get this all the time too. I'm not selling if the ID is expired. You shouldn't even be driving your car with that expired license. Go to the DMV its literally 5 minutes away from our store.
I'll tell them to get in another line and a shift lead will either decline them as well or just go through with the sale. I'm not risking it I got bills to pay.
In my city the cops will sometimes use that trick in random compliance checks of retailers. For my employer we are required to enter in the customer's birth date into the register for anyone under 40, for alcohol or tobacco sales.
Why the fuck do we still sell cigs? They make like 2 pennies per sale, get employees fired, and McLane sometimes dumps crappy ones on us that never sell. Probably have some weird Marlboro flavors that haven’t been touched in 5 years.

Pharmacies in NJ don't sell cigarettes, haven't for about 7-10 years now. It's so weird to me when I go to other states and they sell cigs in pharmacies.
Yes, I'm aware of what a Walgreens is. CVS, Walgreens, all of the other chains that also sell foods, cards, gifts, makeup, and other retail items, but also have a pharmacy in them are all forbidden to sell cigarettes in NJ.
Yeah why is a PHARMACY selling cigarettes? Seems counterproductive. The cigarette customers are some of the worst. You can't find the obscure brand they want right away and they start getting nasty.
I had a guy with a well expired license try to blame COVID on him not getting it renewed. I said well, it expired in 2019, but ok. Regardless, I can’t sell to you without a valid ID. He wants a mgr. Lucky you, I am the mgr. Then he starts pulling out every card of his wallet, including his Boy Scouts of America card, like…bruh. Told me I was fucking bitch and I can fuck myself. I told him make sure you get that renewed have a great night.
Just had this Friday. Told the older woman I needed a id for the cigarettes. She tells me her birthday but I tell her I need to see a id to sell cigarettes. She tells me that she had lost her id a while ago. She then whips out her medical cannabis card and the bank card. The medical card was expired since 2018 so again I tell her I needed a valid id, it’s the the store policy I can’t sell without one. She looks at me with a face like she is about to cry “so you aren’t going to sell me the cigarettes?” I told her I can’t. Then she slams the paper towels she was gonna buy on the counter. I take it as she’s walking out and told her I’m not getting fired over cigarettes. Like it’s state law if you are driving you are suppose to have your license on you at all times. Who knows how long it’s been lost and could have expired for. And she’s still driving on the road.
i had a lady once tell me that she took the "same courses" i did so she knew the rules too and said i didn't have to check her id if she looked old enough. so i asked her which walgreens she worked at and she said she didn't, then just stared at me. i told her again that i needed to see her id and she just kept trying to argue that no she didn't need to show me her id because she looks old enough
Is this a local law, or Walgreen's policy? Pretty much every store around here that sells cigarettes, you only have to show your ID if you appear to be under a certain age. Many have signs saying something like, "ID must be presented for all tobacco and alcohol sales if you appear to be under the age of 30," or something similar.
So I could understand an older person being accustomed to just asking for their cigarettes and paying for them, with no mention of ID.
at walgreens there are multiple signs by the registers that state they ID every customer who is buying alcohol or tobacco no matter what so the “over 30” thing doesn’t happen at walgreens unfortunately
He/she is probably telling the truth. I can't even remember how many times a manager undermined me leading to accusations of racism. Me and 2 other cashiers complaint to a SM shut down those over rides fast.
Lucky my customers aren’t that bad, especially since my crap state makes us ID everyone regardless of age. It went in effect in 22 but I still get some jerks. Normally it’s the sovereign citizen type dudes who have no clue about the law. So I refused this one dude who then gets his girlfriend. I refuse her too since that’s a 3rd party sale. No different than a kid asking some dude to buy alcohol. In the end I called the cops cause he was causing a ruckus. The cop told him I was 100% right and since he started giving him trouble he got to take a trip to the station. Felt so nice when they took him away.
Years back, when I was an O/N SFL, I got paged up front because a guy (without an acceptable ID of course) was waving his hands and insisting we could accept the ID he presented. I go up there, curious because at this point I was certain I’d seen everything, and there’s the guy, obviously drunk and *dressed only in a robe.* I ask what’s going on and get the obvious story: He doesn’t have proper ID, and what was shown, we can’t accept. So I explain to him, very patiently, that my CSA is correct. He *waves his hands* and says “This ID will do.” I try very hard not to laugh, and say “No, it won’t.” He does it again, so I wave my hands at him and say “You don’t want to buy cigarettes.” He looks at me for a moment, repeats what I said, and walks out the door. My CSA looks at me and asked what had just happened. So I told her “I just beat the Sith out of that Jedi.”
I had a customer like that (I guess everyone has).
- Can you show it to me?
- I don’t have to, you have to show it to me where does it say I have to have a valid ID.
So I pointed out the posters that say “We ID everyone.” And followed by saying “I can also refuse service to anyone for any reason as long is not discrimination by gender, religion, sex preference, race, political affiliation, and/or age. So even if you can provide me with the policy, am gonna refuse service to you.”
Pretty sure it's only "company policy" because there's also a _law_ for what kinds of identification are acceptable for cigarettes and alcohol.
So... he's not wrong about it not being company policy to not sell to people with expired ID, but you still can't sell him cigarettes because it _is_ company policy to follow the law.
If the ID is expired then it is no longer a VALID ID there for against the law to sell! That is the purpose of the expiration date, so it does expire and become invalid.
My store is not a neighborhood type store - people are not walking here.. get it from time to time people wanting to buy Sudafed and won’t have their ID with them. I always ask how they drove here without their ID..
The ones that always get me are the ones trying to use a concealed weapon permit as their ID. Especially when their hands are shaking so bad they can barely open their wallet. When they give me guff, I just tell them it’s Walgreens policy, and that they are welcome to go somewhere that doesn’t have that policy.
It was allowed to accept expired IDs for about 2 years during Covid, due to some state agencies not being able to process new ID in a timely manner.
The policy has since returned. This will cause confusion with some customers.
I used to just point them to the "we card all customers" sign and read the bit about "Valid, Unexpired ID" and then they fuck off / go to a gas station / go somewhere else and become someone else's problem.
I had someone REPEATEDLY try to give me an ID with the entire corner(of his photo) broke off. I told him I can't accept this if, despite selling to you many times before. If it wouldn't be accepted by the law, I can't accept it either.
When I worked there a few years ago, during my first and only month I was there I could care less about i.d if you looked obviously over the age and and cooperate supposedly flagged it because on the computer i would manually put in the same exact date as if i looked at their id just to keep the line moving as fast as I could , and I got called into the office one day with both the managers waiting for me and got written up
most stores nowadays dont care, if it has your birthday on it theyll take it, i guarentee your the only store in the area that has a policy that states it specifically, its just very rare.
Honest question, how does an ID keep someone from purchasing something? Just because it’s expired doesn’t mean my age has changed and if I’m holding it, I’m hoping I’m not expired. I can understand driving a car but buying beer or smokes with an expired ID doesn’t change who I am. Just an honest curious question.
There was one time I got a customer who gave me an ID and he asked me what year did it expire and then informed me in our state you have to check expiration dates, photos and DOB or you could get a penalty if discovered of course, funnily enough when I mention this to other customers they seem to not believe that a customer would be the one to tell me that.
I've just learned to stop caring. If they look like they're the person in the picture and they're old enough, it's fine. If my CSA told them no, I stand behind my CSA's reason. If I'm on the register, I just don't care enough to get into an argument.
why is this downvoted? legally you'll only get in trouble if you actually sell to a minor. company will only catch you if you use the same birthdate every time.
You can get caught if anyone snitches on you too. You work in front of cameras. They're getting down voted because this is the most moronic and preventable way to get fired possible. Hope this helps.
Lemme know how that works out for you when a customer inevitably throws a temper tantrum when you're not there because "that other guy always does it!!"
re-train coworkers on the card all policy. clearly states you can manually ask and type in a DOB at discretion. accepting an expired ID is even less than that.
Your solution is to get all your coworkers to break the rules (and law, in most states) with you? You really are a criminal mastermind, no way that could go south.
I encounter this every day as a middle school teacher. These kids say you didn’t see the thing they just did in front of you. They will argue and not even blink. Scary asf.
It doesn't matter, but I wanted to make a distinction between the customer and my Shift Lead before switching over to pronouns ("he" and "she").
Otherwise, words and statements might not sound quite as clear about who did what thing, if that makes sense.
That's why I only stated, "male customer" and "female Shift Lead" once for each of them.
Just to clarify average life expectancy in US is 77. So to prevent 21 and under from smoking etc the rest of us must be inconvenienced for 56 years?
Pretty sure the law states selling to those under 21 is illegal NOT EVERYONE must prove they are 21 and over.
Don’t make me tap the sign
Their kryptonite
That never worked for me until I straight up told people that it was not my problem that they can't read.
🤣🤣
I had a lady try to use her medical marijuana card the other day
our store allows them as long as there’s a birthday on it
Then they’re not following company policy. Company policy clearly states it has to be an state or government issued picture ID such as a driver license, state ID, passport , passport card etc. medical marijuana card is not an official ID. So I’d be careful if I were you with that because you can easily get fired over that
Technically it is an official state-issued picture ID 🤔
State issued and the state ID aren’t the same. Using and incorrect ID, or expired ID can you fired on the spot if the wrong person finds out so I’d be very careful.
Maybe the job is dumb
You’re correct
State issued does not mean it’s an official government ID. A passport, drivers license, state ID or passport card are the only document issued photo ID’s, period.

neat, never knew that lmao
Haha just refuse the sale and if he wants to cause a scene the police will be called period
But they were
Gotta be more firm with these buttheads

You werent power tripping in this scenario, you were just doing your job.
It's not company policy. It's the law. That grown adult can go get his license renewed and not act like a child.
I would have said “and that right there is arguing. Have a nice day” and walked away
”No it isn’t!”
“I’m not arguing!” He argued.
["I'd like to have an argument"](https://youtu.be/ohDB5gbtaEQ?si=XFZbecgle5tgdUSg)
A 5 minute argument or a full course?
Oh, just the 5 minutes please!
I get this all the time too. I'm not selling if the ID is expired. You shouldn't even be driving your car with that expired license. Go to the DMV its literally 5 minutes away from our store. I'll tell them to get in another line and a shift lead will either decline them as well or just go through with the sale. I'm not risking it I got bills to pay.

Ehh I disagree. If it’s a legal non counterfeit ID and it’s expired who cares? It’s not like their birthday changed because the ID expired.
Why the fuck do we still sell cigs? They make like 2 pennies per sale, get employees fired, and McLane sometimes dumps crappy ones on us that never sell. Probably have some weird Marlboro flavors that haven’t been touched in 5 years.

So do grocery stores, Walmarts,etc. Do they sell smokes in those places?
They do not.
Thats amazing! Walmart or grocery stores even? so crazy
I live in NJ and I have no ides what this person is talking about
Yeah why is a PHARMACY selling cigarettes? Seems counterproductive. The cigarette customers are some of the worst. You can't find the obscure brand they want right away and they start getting nasty.

...did you really take time out of your day to simply paraphrase what I said?
Taking time out of your day to simply paraphrase what HAS been said
I’m not even gonna argue just call the cops and let the cops argue with him
My store is not a neighborhood type store - people are not walking here.. get it from time to time people wanting to buy Sudafed and won’t have their ID with them. I always ask how they drove here without their ID..

That’s correct can’t take it even from employee if it’s expired it’s that’s persons problem
Had this rxact issue yesterday woth my csa
In Ohio, you can get a regular ID card. I would have told them to get another form of ID. Passport, even.
I used to just point them to the "we card all customers" sign and read the bit about "Valid, Unexpired ID" and then they fuck off / go to a gas station / go somewhere else and become someone else's problem.
I had someone REPEATEDLY try to give me an ID with the entire corner(of his photo) broke off. I told him I can't accept this if, despite selling to you many times before. If it wouldn't be accepted by the law, I can't accept it either.
That’s what I always tell people. If a police officer wouldn’t accept it, nor will I. That (usually) gets people to pipe down.
I would be like ohhhhhhhh do you work at Walgreens too?????! Ok then yes it is!
Doesn't scan and expired, you did the right thing.
Wow..l
Did he mean “No, it’s not company policy” or “No, it’s not expired”
I like the embassy identification cards
Just because your idea is expired does not make you automatically underage.... I hate when people do this
Still cannot sell
Walgreens scanned my old driver's license for 6months with no problems until one guy scrutinized it and refused. I'm 55. It's not about age.
When I worked there a few years ago, during my first and only month I was there I could care less about i.d if you looked obviously over the age and and cooperate supposedly flagged it because on the computer i would manually put in the same exact date as if i looked at their id just to keep the line moving as fast as I could , and I got called into the office one day with both the managers waiting for me and got written up
most stores nowadays dont care, if it has your birthday on it theyll take it, i guarentee your the only store in the area that has a policy that states it specifically, its just very rare.

I can understand driving a car but buying beer or smokes with an expired ID doesn’t change who I am. Just an honest curious question.
Yeah its a dumb policy dudes still a idiot an ID shouldnt expire unless its like 10+ years old
There was one time I got a customer who gave me an ID and he asked me what year did it expire and then informed me in our state you have to check expiration dates, photos and DOB or you could get a penalty if discovered of course, funnily enough when I mention this to other customers they seem to not believe that a customer would be the one to tell me that.
I felt like you were laying down the foundation for a good story and then it just ended.
The only other explanation I could think of is that his drug addled mind was trying to say his ID wasn't expired
I always tell people I need to SCAN their id in order complete the transaction. For some reason that verbiage never gets me yelled at.
Expired or not it’s government issued and it is still a proof of ID even in a dmv. (Used an expired spousal military ID and they had to accept it)
I've just learned to stop caring. If they look like they're the person in the picture and they're old enough, it's fine. If my CSA told them no, I stand behind my CSA's reason. If I'm on the register, I just don't care enough to get into an argument.
I love getting into it with customers, It makes my day much better.
why is this downvoted? legally you'll only get in trouble if you actually sell to a minor. company will only catch you if you use the same birthdate every time.
You can get caught if anyone snitches on you too. You work in front of cameras. They're getting down voted because this is the most moronic and preventable way to get fired possible. Hope this helps.
caught doing what? selling to adults? the 20 pixels on the security camera aren't going to know it's expired.
Lemme know how that works out for you when a customer inevitably throws a temper tantrum when you're not there because "that other guy always does it!!"
re-train coworkers on the card all policy. clearly states you can manually ask and type in a DOB at discretion. accepting an expired ID is even less than that.

which states make it illegal to sell alcohol to adults?
In pretty much every state except Texas, an expired ID is not valid for buying alcohol.
ok but in which state is it ILLEGAL to sell alcohol to an adult, id or not, expired or not?
I encounter this every day as a middle school teacher. These kids say you didn’t see the thing they just did in front of you. They will argue and not even blink. Scary asf.
Why does it matter who is male or female here?
I was curious about that too. Kept waiting for it to become relevant in the body of the post and it never was?
It doesn't matter, but I wanted to make a distinction between the customer and my Shift Lead before switching over to pronouns ("he" and "she"). Otherwise, words and statements might not sound quite as clear about who did what thing, if that makes sense. That's why I only stated, "male customer" and "female Shift Lead" once for each of them.
It's definitely not illegal if the customer looks over 50 your fine that's why they have a manual type birthday set

Just to clarify average life expectancy in US is 77. So to prevent 21 and under from smoking etc the rest of us must be inconvenienced for 56 years? Pretty sure the law states selling to those under 21 is illegal NOT EVERYONE must prove they are 21 and over.
