[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Dilbert Frequent Victims Club

[Robert Primak]

 Store loyalty cards are a mixed bag if you ask me. At some stores like CVS and Stop And Shop it's fairly hassle-free to load the cards, including online coupon deals, and to use the cards in the stores. Others like Star Market and Hannaford's make things much more of a hassle, so I don't use their card programs.  My sister won't use any loyalty cards anywhere. But she did for awhile have an Amazon credit card. I don't even belong to Prime, though during the Pandemic I considered joining. But not now.

 I remember Radio Shack started this, maybe in the 1990s by asking for
personal data every time you bought something, even for cash.
I hated going to them just because of their continuous pestering.

The continuous soliciting of personal data was parodied in today's Dilbert

Love the line: "...because the other stores are just as bad as we are..."
