A lot of stores used to do things like close for part of a day to do inventory. I assume there is still some syncing up during the night or whatever. But I also assume that, as with many things, many stores have probably been willing to trade off a degree of accuracy for reduced costs.

They still do, but it usually only happens a few times per year.
