This idea will not work. If somebody is a member and has a card this does not mean that they must use only one paticular chain. With the same (or even greater) result this chain can offer discount to everybody - regardless of their membership in some mythic organisation ...

I'd be grateful if somebody posts some real arguments (not emotions!) that can make me to change my mind ...

That's the catch-22. To get the card up and running a critical mass of people are needed. Having said that, the number needed is apparently less than 10,000 and with 350,000 recieving my email tip, I hope we can help get close to that. (im not linked with the scheme, i just support the concept)

The Times Online article in "Pipeline in the media"

http://timesbusiness.typepad.com/money_weblog/2005/11/fuel_for_though.html

says ....

"Mr Scammel will not reveal how many people must join the scheme before the retailer will offer the discount but he has assured Times Online that the scheme requires less than 100,000 people – a figure that seems eminently achievable once news of the campaign spreads."


I presume you have dropped a zero ?

Or did the Times article gain one ?


Insert from martin: sorry there was a typo in the original post i've corrected it
