I have seen people get a little shirty at the Somerfield checkout when they cant have the 2 for 1 offers BUT, the till person justs signs them up there and then (you should see the queue), and hey presto- another signed up loyalty cardholder

A free people does not need i/d papers to buy bread.

although this a very old post I've just found it, I made a scene at Somerfield in Somerset, Burnham I think it was, I selected loads of buy one get one free's, got to to the till and was told I needed a card, she wanted to sign me up told checkout operator that there was no mention on the shelves that you needed a card to qualify for the offers and that I was not going to give her my name address DOB etc just to get free bread butter and pop, she looked at me as if I was crazy, I emptied the bags (to the shame of my husband ) and went to walk off, store manager came and said I could have a holiday card which did not require personal information and I could upgrade if I changed my mind - hey presto problem solved but you could see from the faces of the people around me they thought I was a crazy Welsh person who shouldn't be allowed out

Well, you may be a crazy welsh person, but I think that you were absolutely right to make a tiny scene there
