If the store lets you use your phone number instead of the card try (local area code) 867-5309. Somebody has usually registered it already.

A couple years ago, Safeway rolled out an app that contains the best deals. It's slowly becoming a situation where you can either use the app (and get tracked) or get reamed on pricing.
For anyone curious, same with Kroger in the midwest. I generally choose Meijer...they do digital coupons, but nothing dramatic. And they don't inflate their prices for 'nonmembers.'
What's special about 867 5309? Is it a reference to a tv show like 90210?
it is from a song. "Jenny" by Tommy Tutone. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/867-5309/Jenny

from 1981.
