10. I have been told by the employees that they cannot access the
data concerning my purchases. I guess my point is that it appears they outsource their pricing process to an external firm.

I will give you an ex., because I have a difficult time expressing myself in written form.

I worked for a credit card co., 2 1/2 months too long. Here is how they processed check payments. The check you send goes to a co. that basically, gathers and cashes the checks. The check info. then is sent to a co., that assigns that check payment to an acct and transmits the info to another party that manages the account and notifies the credit card co. of the payment.

My point is that the credit card co., does nothing other than have a list of customers and very basic info. on those customers. They out source every function of processing that account.

I don't think the store has the ability to control the scanner amts, it's outsourced to another co. So, who is this process out-sourced too?
