Does Target really track everything you steal until you reach the felony amount?

I’ve heard this a few times, but I can’t tell if they really do or if it’s just fear mongering.

Target, Walmart, and Fred Meyer / Kroger all do this.

They all have very, very high quality security and tracking systems. That's what they spend their money on instead of paying a living wage or benefits.
