Subject: RE: BS: Offensive grocery ID cards - privacy
I hate the cards. More plastic to carry around.

I always liked shopping at Albertsons -- no card. I complained loudly when they sytarted a card. However, they obviously thought out the privacy concerns -- you don't have to provide ANY information to get a card, so no marketing nonsense.

They will track your purchases for marketing reasons, but it won't be associated to your name. And I'm okay with that.
