Euphoria14 tells me to try regeristing the wii with nintendo. So I do it a then the warrenty is back.(It adds 3 months) I don't get it what is the point why not just give you the 15 month warrenty. What is gained with the registration? It reminds me of when you go to a store and they ask you if you have a discount card, and if you don't they grab one and swipe it for you. Why not just give you the discount to begin with? Whats the point of the card? |
Discount cards allow them to track consumers buying paterns so they know what consumers buy what. Which consumers that buy Pepsi for example buy toilet paper, also what time a week, what time a day. It also alows them to see how much sales affect your buying patter.
For example say you buy coke 90% of the time, but when pepsi is on sale, you buy pepsi...
It offers a great wealth of consumer marketing research.
All this allows stores to know what sales to advertise in it's circulars... which products to put on an end cap, which items to put near to each other and where displays should go within plain site... etc.
