Assignment:
Step 1: Sign up for VIP cards (use fake info) in the following 4 stores:
Albertsons
Frys
Safeway
Bashas
Step 2: When you go to the store, try using a VIP card for the wrong store: Example: go to Frys and use your Safeway club card.
Step 3: Report to the forums. Please report the what store the vip card is supposed to be for, the first 6 digits of the barcode, what store you tried it on, and if it worked or not.
Step 4: Goto Step 2 Until research is done
Whoever submits their results on the forums will be listed below as members of this project. Please don’t make stuff up either, we want a working product…well I do atleast. Don’t worry about being secretive with this. I sometimes prefer going to normal checkout (not self-checkout). I just say “hey, I’m curious, but could you see if this VIP card works.” Or just tell them your doing a research project for school. Honestly, with most of them, you don’t even have to give them a story. But then again, those of you that have used the first generation VIP card know that. I will have a Open Office Calc file with the results in progress of the data collected below.
