There's nothing bad about companies knowing better what I might > buy from them :-) Well... Actually, the Supercard (and the Cumulus as well) are quite easy to "exploit" and throw a monkey wrench up Coops and Migros database. I have both cards but I share them with my parents. That is one thing, one can do, share the card. Then, I don't have the card with me all of the time. (In fact I do have them with me, but oh well...). In that case, if the grandma before or after me has a card, I just ask her if she wants my Cumulus points on her account. Sure they do, classical win-win situation. She is happy, Migros database is confused (what does the 90 year old lady buys beer, CD-Rs and condoms for?) and the clerk won't mind anyway. This also works the other way. If someone at the checkout does not have a card, why not ask them, if you can have their points on your account? Just ask nicely, most people without a card won't mind. Another win-win situation here.
