I've noticed cameras in the payment terminals at some Kroger stores lately. All checkout lanes, not just self-checkout.
Also, the HD nearest me has no fewer than 10 ALPRs in their parking lot. They've made absolutely sure that you're gonna get into the database.
ALPR = Automatic License-Plate Recognition [1] for those not familiar with the acronym.

The more conventional acronym is ANPR.
Whatever is more conventional depends on the convention for whatever the plate is called in the respective location.
