Again, Bullshit. I do not buy the same groceries every time I go to the
store, and neither do most people.
Most REAL people, I mean, as opposed to the mindless pre-programmed
drones you seem to suppose exist.
And just what is it you think is "coming", anyway? A Big Brother type
society? Hmmm, I think you are making my point for me. LOL!

GONG! Wrongo.
The original post was about what one person did in regard to being
required to provide a whole lot of personal data in order to get a
"discount" card which we have already established to be a thinly veiled
excuse to build mailing lists while simultaneously raising prices
without appearing to do so.
Had not a thing to do with surveys.
