Yeah in a way i think the bestbuy is the only one that's worth it. I mean it's a fast way to get points although you gotta wait a month before they give it to you. Worth the wait imo.

Meh, I'm not really too worried about stores knowing that I buy cigarettes, drinks, and food.
I have a Finish Line Preferred Customer card, I get discounts and stuff for every purchase.

But, I think it is not a big deal that Safeway know that you buy a lot of coke, and chips. You can get a lot of points fast these days since things like food, health care, and gas prices are rising.
well i've got news for you they do, and they then sell that data to third parties who then create "marketing campaigns" (junk mail) to send to you,

I just find Bestbuy prices better compared to HMV, and other similar type stores.
I usually just recycle those junk mail, but all that junk mail can't be good for the environment since they use so much paper and ink.
I mainly get junk mail from Dominoes, and Mcdonalds.
I just find those telemarketers phoning me up annoying since I have to say I am not interested, but they still phone me.
