Maybe. Some places like Walmart won’t stop you the first few times regardless of what you take. They have a history of waiting until they can prove it’s a pattern and get you with felony charges
It would only become federal charges if you’re doing something that brings it into federal jurisdiction, such as somehow conspiring across state lines to steal from walmart, or stealing from a walmart that’s located in DC or on an indian reservation.
And it’s Target that’s infamous for waiting and watching while they build up enough total thefts on your record to amount to felony theft charges. Though I certainly wouldn’t put it past other stores to do that. They don’t always do that, though, so you can’t count on being safe as long as you keep it under your state’s felony theft limit.

*felony charges, not federal.
