That would be nice... Because they are super annoying from a privacy standpoint but usually let you save a bundle
Yep, I agree. And even if you were to get a generic loyalty card with no info tied to it, or fake credentials as someone else in the thread suggested, it would still be attributed to a single person/household where they build a solid marketing profile and may tie it to credit card or other financial or tracking information.
You could use a random one each time and pay cash, but of course they could use facial recognition if you go to the store
