I'll give you an actual exchange I had with a Gamestop employee back in, 2012 (the last time I stepped foot in one of their stores).
Me "Yeah, I'd like a copy of Xenoblade Chronicles please"
Him "Ok" (grabs the game, puts it down on the counter and begins typing shit up on his computer) "Would you like to sign up Power up Rewards..."
Me "No thanks."
Him "Really man? Are you sure?"
Me "Yeah"
Him "Why?"
Me "Just don't want to"
Him "Alright" *snarky laugh* "I guess you just have something against saving money"
Me "Yeah, guess so."
I wanted to punch this kid in the face, but I just dead panned it, paid, took my game and ran. That has been par for the course for me everything I have gone in the store over the last 12 years or so. So, I'm officially done.
Funcoland, on the other hand, was awesome. But after being bought out, the whole thing went down hill imo.
