I bought Resident Evil 7 at launch last week from Gamestop.

Guy asked me when I was at the counter if I would like to sign up for their Rewards program. I said "Nah maybe another time".

"I'll set you up with our basic one then" was his response.

Doesn't hurt.

I've won stuff from Nintend for Preordering Nintendo stuff in the store.

I know, I just thought it was funny how he bothered to ask when even if I said no he was just going to do it anyway. I'm guessing by policy for working there it's in his job to have to ask people and he's probably told to try to push memberships on people or something i'm guessing.

It just made me think of something like "Wanna sign up for this?" "No thanks maybe ne-" "Great! I'll get you started".

I used to have a Pro Membership Gamestop thing years ago as well where you could redeem stuff with points and get the magazines and such, but like I said that was years ago.  

Gamestop does seem to have some shitty policies though. Just like how they try to sell already opened copies of  games as 'new' even though they're not new at that point. That happened when I bought Borderlands: The Handsome Collection on PS4.
