Normally I just pay the cashier and get a receipt.
However, some stores I've gone to, lately they want a bit of customer information for their database if you're a first-timer, ostensibly for potential offers and discount sales. You can just say no, or go find another store that doesn't ask for more than your payment.
WTF
This huge consumer electronics chain here does it. It's their default to ask "which phone number should I put it on?", but before they get to the excuse of where to send the electronic receipt, I just tell them "no, you don't need it".
Either the cashier wanted to ask you out on a date or it was all BS pretext for data harvesting.
I live near a microcenter and they are like this. I had to pick up an Ethernet cable and I just paid cash. When I didn't want to tell them my phone or email the cashier looked at me like I kicked a puppy.
I usually just say "no thanks to any of that" and they just carry on.
My new use name is Wojtek, pronounced "Voy-tek".
Bruno is my go-to name. No matter where I am in the world, Bruno sounds right.
Yep. When I don't want to give certain information away, I simply say no. Regardless of their response my answer is no, I'm not interested. That's it. " I'm not interested", is my explanation. If they don't like it, I can go somewhere else, or I will do without.
