I boycott Radioshack

Well radioshack... you know the old joke... dunno if they still do it. Why do they need your phone number/address when you buy a battery???? I always wonder that. I think technically if you pay with visa or any credit card... they have no right to ask that. [/b][/quote]
marketing purposes - see where people buying are from, and see if they should open new stores somewhere, direct flyers to an area, etc.
- either way, no matter how you pay, if they ask for your information, you have the right to refuse doing so. You can also ask exactly how they're using your information, for what purposes, etc. Most people just go ahead and give it to avoid the hassle of not giving it.
