Right now I know theres nothing Giant or Safeway could do with our sales information. However, it's scary to think of the possiblities.

Say if the Fairfax County police and Giant went on a joint venture to cut down on drunk driving. If Giant gives the police your sales records and fairfax finds that you've been purchasing two or three cases of beer every week, it is very likely that your car will be under high surveillance.
