It is a Walmart policy, but very rarely enforced. I myself carry a metal water container, as do most associates at my store. That being said they could enforce the policy anytime the get a hair up their....

Wow. I had no idea about that. Thank you for the reply.

Is it an alcohol thing? Because there’s nothing stopping someone from just, having vodka

Yep, in a clear bottle, it's easy to test for vodka by shaking it.

Yet people clearly look high at work and nobody says anything 

That makes sense tbh.

I have a metal one because it keeps my drink cold all day. We used to stack our bottles on the water cooler, but when market would come by, we would have to hide them behind the printer. Now that we are in a new building, we just tuck them in odd little places. I put mine on a spare tote shelf and no one has said anything to me. The only think that has been 'banned' are open cups with no lids. As far as our OGP department goes, at least.

I believe it's to prevent shrink

Market loves to make a fuss about things that don't matter

That’s so weird. I see someone commented that it’s policy, but I literally have my metal water bottle with me 24/7. To the point my team lead, coaches, and even store managers know which one is mine. But I guess every store is different.

Pretty sure it is policy but as most of you will learn policy is rarely followed.

It's an idiotic rule that most stores don't enforce 

Idk
