The shareholder discounts do make it very attractive. Occasionally some punk
behind a register will ask you to sign for it though. Actually, it's either
the really fresh young punks high on store policy/procedures, or the older
punk that seems to want to assert some "behind the register" authority.
But generally most people just make room to fit it into the mechanics of
register motions (ie. pickup, scan, put down, smile, patronise the customer
vaguely about having some sort of a *nice* day).
So be wary if using another persons card that you may get caught out. Aside
from the discount though, they make a worthy investment but check the policy
about how many (or when) shares are required.
That said 20% sales becoming --> 30% sales, make it pretty worthy. Though
the way lego is at the moment, I'm not spending any money at all!
Have a nice day *smile*
