They killed Jenny

[kaiser715]

Ever since the grocery stores started using phone numbers for their rewards programs, I have just used Jenny's number. Works anywhere in the country without having to sign up for a rewards program in a store you'll only shop in that one time. A few weeks ago, it worked fine. Tonight, no bueno. Food Lion killed Jenny.

Funny part is, I punched the number in, just as always. It didn't take. Manager came over. Actually told me to just swipe my credit card, then the MVP would be applied. Told her I was no dummy, as soon as I do that, it is a done deal. So, I asked the lady in line behind me to use her card. She gave the cashier her phone number. My total went from $99 to 70. I kept my mouth shut. Looked at the receipt later, every MVP discount was doubled up.

RIP 867-5309

Damn, I've been using 828 867 5309 at food Lion for years too. I hope you didn't ruin this for all of us.

They can't track you and sell the info to Facebook if they don't know who you are.

Im pretty sure they were talking about that a couple weeks ago on 2 guys named chris.

Charlotte man's 'Jenny' phone number racks him up thousands in Food Lion savings

He believes his phone number was used by grocery shoppers who wanted to save money, but don't have their own accounts with the company.

I used Jenny's number at the FL by Mt house in SC last November and I think it had $30K in sales at that time. I don't remember how much was saved.

I've used it a bunch too. Always felt like taking part in some great nationwide secret brotherhood, knowing all us guys (we all know its a guy thing) are in on the same con.

I often still use the number for the lab I work in at WFU 25 years ago, just becausei t was one of the numbers I had memorized before cell phones took away my memory.

I've tried it for Harris teeter fuel points before and it didn't work.

 

[rodney eppes]

I'm still waiting to hear How your savings, doubled up? I've always used my own number, & do get the MVP savings on the discounted items. But Never Doubled!

Got in trouble when I worked at radio shack for using john Smith 555 main st anytown us

I guess they were sending mailers out to false addresses. I just hated asking for phone number and address.

You never learned the phone book trick? I hated asking for name and address too.
