Many stores let you enter your phone number on a keypad if you've forgotten your loyalty card at home. If you don't feel like signing up for a store's card to get a discount, just try entering 867-5309 (from the Jenny song) in your local area code. 99% of the time it works!

For anyone who asked my phone number i always used 555-1212 which was the 'universal' number for directory assistance for a long time. If people questioned it I said, call that number, ask for me, they will tell you the number to call :-)
