I am in 100% agreement with you.

The fact that this is called a "Loyalty Card" is outrageous.
No -- it isn't outrageous; it's insulting!

I bought it. I like it and it has already paid for itself. We still have choices, don't like it don't buy it.

20 percent return!

Received a $100.00 gift card from Bone Fish.
Guess where we will be dining.
Lopez which includes Hemingways has a $20.00 Loyalty card which does not expire and includes 10 percent off at lunch.
We have already gotten free food that covered the fee.
Thanks for that info. I just saw the full page ad in The Sun for five venues: ie: Evans Prarie, Bonifay, OBG, Belle Glade & Scooples. They offer a $10.00 gift certificate when you purchase $100.00 in gift cards. Uhmn! Doesn't quite compare so favorably!

If you eat out often and /or if you are a drinker than such cards offer some financial relief.

The concept that there is a loyalty club amongst villagers is offensive. Offer a member discount, but loyalty, I dont think so. Now I will ask and walk out on any venue that offers such a discount

Default "Loyalty Cards"

Fred obviously paid attention during his marketing courses in his MBA program.

What is it they say: "Any press is good press." I'm uncertain why so many are in a twit over this. Just don't buy it.

Well, I guess you will not be enjoying the delicious food at Lopez or Hemingway. They share a loyalty card. Your loss.

It really does amaze me that this loyalty card has created so much buzz and attention. Especially from those that didn't buy it, have no intention on buying it and now are going to boycott those businesses because they don't like the idea of it.
Really ?? With all of the chaos & awful things going on in the world today, the important topic is complaining about something that you "aren't" going to buy. I don't get it, but I guess to each their own.
I say, just don't buy it and let it be.
