Used this the other day, when I bought a hard drive at my local B&M. Girl at the checkout asked me for my phone number, so she could check to see if I had their frequent shopper program (whatever OD calls theirs). When it didn't show up in the system, I told her I'd recently changed phone #'s. She asked if I wanted to sign up for their program? Sure, why not....
Made me realize 2 things:
1. this is supposed to be for their frequent shopper program members (probably tracked to your number, so you can only use it once)
2. you can give them any name & number, and use it over and over again! She just had me fill out the card, so she could put the info into the system, but there was nothing to keep me from putting in bogus info (no I.D. check, or anything). If I pay with cash, I could go in once a week, for the next 4 weeks, and just make sure I use a different checkout person every time...... :whiste:
