I found one of those little keychain petco affinity cards one day at
Balboa Park. I put it on my keyring and have been using it ever since.
Dunno who the owner is, but he's probably one of Petco's favorites,
since I foster dogs for rescue and do a lot of shopping there.
When I was in Grand Junction CO last year I got a grocery store
affinity card. I used the name Jacob Fingerfold, the address of the
flip house I was working on, my cell phone number, but without the
area code. The night I left, after my last purchase, I handed Jacob
Fingerfold's affinity card to some Japanese tourist girls.
