I have NEVER used loyalty cards. I smelled a rat decades ago when Tesco started with that wee ‘thing’ that people used to put on their keyrings. What racketeering it all is! The price of freedom and choice is indeed costly. It boils my piss! But.. I will continue to avoid any of it for now. I am using these hideous Cathedrals of Commerce less and less. I am lucky. I can. But there are plently of people who have no choice. As we know, the agenda is all about limiting our choices.

I only use a self-serivce checkout if there are no ‘manned’ checkouts available. I note that they tend to shut them down after 17:00hrs. Scumbags!
