I have one of those too.. but only used cash with it. I have heard that if you use that and a CC or debit card they link the data - even if just once - and can link the past data as well. I also have my wifi turned on my phone so they can't correlate the 'burner card' with that.. if I don't have cash I use a different discount card.

Of course if they scan the face and correlate that way - meh. For that reason I only use cash at Target - but not sure how long that will be enough to keep from data points being put together there or anywhere at this rate.
