But I did the Jenny thing all the time because it amused me, and perhaps the cashier if any of them caught the reference.

Lifehack: get the club card but never fill out and send in any information. Have fun tracking the spending habits of loving nobody, Brookshire's. Double lifehack: want to never see your keys again? Lose them while the only grocery club card on the ring has no information associated with it.

That group of people is pretty limited to those planning to do something illegal and those who believe there is an evil cabal that will use your toilet paper purchasing habits against you. These people will still often pay with a credit card, meaning that the store still tracks their purchases but the customer receives no benefit. Bonus points if they don't sign the back of their card because "if I lose it, then someone will have my signature!"...the same signature that is printed on the bottom of most receipts. Lifehack: You can't hide, so stop doing a lovely job of trying.

I just tell the cashier "no" when they ask if they can have my phone number instead of making one up. Have I been lifehacking this whole time?

Depends. If you stand to save some number of dollars by saying seven numbers in a row, you're just bad with money by refusing to do so. If your store doesn't have an incentive program and a sexy cashier is asking you for your phone number, you aren't failing in life financially but you may wish to re-evaluate your actions if you have any interest in reproduction. If you don't stand to save any cash and don't want to tap that checkout rear end, then you have hacked life.

[Your Area Code]-867-5309 typically has a store-rewards-maxed-out account because it is very frequently used, so if you don't want to be tracked, that's the number to use. Back in my supermarket days, that account had about twenty times the sales figures as the most prolific shopper in our chain. #retailhacks

I use the 867-5309 thing when I get gas at Kroger (regional grocery/gas chain). They give discounts based on how often their account numbers are used. I have my own card but the 867-5309 usually gives way more of a discount than mine.

Meowjesty posted:Or I remember some big twitter dude got a few thousand people to all use the same club card numbers a few years ago, and it was rather entertaining. Some grocery stores do freebies tied to the club card, like "buy 5 sandwiches, get the 6th one free" or you'd get $2 off the next purchase because someone bought diapers or some poo poo. Then the printer would usually spew out a bunch of coupons.

thespaceinvader posted:Did it though? As with the teaspoon in the champagne bottle supposedly retaining the fizz (it doesn't, champagne stays fizzy for a remarkably long time anyway), it's entirely possible this is just an artefact of confirmation bias. The only way to be sure one way or the other would be to buy two identical tubs of ice cream, put them both in the freezer, one in a bag, and see if they behaved any differently. I'm not sure if anyone ended up answering this one, but I would presume that the ice cream's softness has less to do with temperature than how it is affected by humidity. Freezer air is exceptionally dry - putting an open ice cream container in a ziploc bag would go a long way toward keeping the localised humidity from being frozen to the edges of the freezer. [edit] it had come up several times over a dozen pages, then people go and answer it properly the very next page from here. Forums Lifehack: never, ever post.

I don't know the zipcode of the tiny town I've been living in for a year and a half so I just use the one for the next town over that I grew up in. Also I don't know my address off the top of my head because I never changed my mailing address from my parents house and just pick up packages there and get free dinner. #lazyhacks

I use a generic number for my ZIP code and I have all my mail and my packages delivered to an unnamed warehouse in the middle of nowhere, and I drive out there once a week when I go to buy supplies for my underground bunker. Soon my plans will come to fruition and I will be the sole ruler of a charred and ruined world. #supervillainhacks

Shut up about your loving zip codes. A legitimate life hack for toilets is indeed throwing some toilet paper in before you poop, but just because it keeps you from getting your rear end wet by preventing splashes. #poophacker
