What is a loyalty Card for, to help you, to give you discounts, a friendly gesture from your store?  Maybe.  However mostly its fro checking where you shop, what you buy and when.  It allows stores to track you.
In our big brother world, all the computerised processing of our actions allow us to be tracked across the globe.

Your Loyalty card, the street cameras, when you go to the cash point (ATM) or spend in a shop, use your credit card or store card, when you are tracked on CCTV in shops and stores, you internet IP address (oh yes every user and internet user has one, oh and your mobile/cell phone… all these things allow you to be tracked and your privacy invaded.

That Loyalty card allows the big stores …especially the supermarkets to track your buying patterns and snoop on what you buy, all for a few vouchers, I would prefer all round lower prices and more organic food.  Instead I used to get (cos I just dont use the card anymore) a few money off vouchers and some vouchers for products i didn’t want.

Why do they want this information?  To sell you more stuff you don’t need or want

DONT ALLOW THE STORES TO INVADE YOUR PRIVACY DONT BE BOUGHT FOR THEIR PIECES OF SILVER. STOP USING YOUR LOYALTY CARD NOW AND ASK FOR BETTER PRICING, LESS PACKAGING AND MORE ORGANICS.
