| Sure they will. Not like its that hard to anyway, even if I was to not have a discount card, my credit card company and/or bank could tell where I shop anyway without any intervention from them. Unless of course I go to a cash only basis, but then my money will make me no money at all, even though 1% or less is pathetic for interest nowadays, its inconvienent to carry cash as well as unsafe, and I somehow have to make a little money with my money anyway. Can't do that without banks or anonymously.
No matter what I do, somehow I will be tracked. Besides, my DNA profile is out there too, well close enough to it, being a security guard I have to be fingerprinted and subjected to rubber glove/drug tests frequently so I'm going to have alot of me on file, well, alot more than the average person at least. I have to be able to drive, so the state will know who I am, and they get my thumbprint and SS# with that. Have to have a gun carry permit to do my job, so now the feds have my info for that.
I actually shop at a grocery store that doesn't use cards. But since they have a no debit card policy, its write a check or hit the bank for $100 each time I go. Thats not convienent, so wallah-my purchases can easily be tied to my name and tracked.
If I ever get sick, I'll go to a medical facility and have who knows what taken from me. Supposedly its used for testing, but who knows-anything could happen to that sample-it could be placed into a database for all I know!
Either way, I'm gonna be tracked. I might as well benefit from the tracking and get discounts on stuff out of it. Its either that or pay full price, walk, and....well, can't live anywhere nowadays without providing a name and a social security number either.
I'm gonna be found no matter what I do to try and hide it. I hope they find the data they collect on me to be interesting. I'm sure it builds them an interesting profile, and it helps them to 'target' me for certian discounts and ads. Not much I can do about it, so I might as well sit back and enjoy it. The worst thing that will happen is some of their junk mail will help me start a fire to keep myself warm in the winter I guess
