Interesting point on grocery cards... Why do they have your name at 
all?  Every grocery card I've ever gotten they've said "here's your 
card and application, please fill out the application and mail it 
in".  I say "thank you ma'am", walk out the door and toss the 
"application" in the trash.  Not exactly strong (or any) name 
linkage...
