That's actually one of the reasons why I avoided shopping at Radio Shack.

That's actually one of the reasons why I avoided shopping at Radio Shack. Every other business in town just silently pulls your information using the bank card, and leaves cash customers alone. Asking for my telephone number and/or ZIP code is not a necessary part of the transaction. I don't actually care much that they have the info. There's no easy way around it, and if you ever order goods to be delivered to your home, you're hardly keeping it a secret. What I really objected to was the extra inconvenience at the point of sale. And also having to endure "help" from clueless employees. I hate that "can I help you find anything, sir?" If I need help, I will find a person who doesn't look like a total noob and ask them, because I really don't need another warm body scanning the shelves next to me, who doesn't even know what the thing I want looks like.
