Yes. It's totally legal. Usually this is to prevent/prosecute shoplifting. But, in this case it could be used to prevent other crime as well.

Nothing new here... I've seen cameras in stores since long before 9/11 and the Patriot Act.

Yeh, anything that another person next to you in the store could see or hear is fair game.
