Not that you should keep shopping there if you're unhappy, but the whole "take that! Retailer!" schtick is really only something customers use to make themselves feel better.
So you're saying that me taking my business elsewhere will have no impact on a multibillion dollar companies bottom line and they won't care/notice about me?

TIL

The bottom line for me is that the new take your receipt to the cashier instead of having the convenience of paying and receiving the discount at the pump is stupid and is an inconvenience. You might say it...GMG.
