The exhaustive "search" of your cash register receipt--a "strip" of paper-- that is performed by the Granny Gestapo when you attempt to exit a Wal-Mart store. This process is made more difficult because the Gestapo Associate usually has poor eyesight, and the items on the receipt are represented by unintelligibly abbreviated code names. In Wal-Mart's eyes, every honest shopper is a potential shoplifter.
The Wal-Mart checker was too lazy to bag the toilet paper, so I was strip searched by the Granny Gestapo when I tried to exit the store.

The elderly female employees stationed at the entrance to Walmart stores. The purpose of the Granny Gestapo is to make honest Walmart shoppers feel like shoplifters as they attempt to leave the store. Once Walmart has your money, the Granny Gestapo carefully searches through your purchases item by item to make sure that each one matches your receipt precisely. Also known as Walmart security or as people greeters.
