supermarket club cards (lemmings.world)

Hey I'm sure you all know how sketchy club cards are for collecting your data. But I do begrudge paying slightly higher prices just for valuing my privacy. I was wondering if there was any way to sign up to these things whilst limiting the data they have access to. Would it be enough to sign up with fake details and never use their apps? Or should I just give up on this all together? Thanks!

I was accused of stealing by a self checkout machine 3 times in 2 weeks. Discount card or not I'm shopping at the more expensive knock off whole foods instead. Fuck kroger. (I was still stealing apples. Because fuck kroger)

So you were stealing. That doesn't seem unreasonable.

Just gave me a random memory. I used to scan stuff through as onions back when self checkout was introduced. Got away with it so many times. Wouldn't recommend it now😅
