Why does Walgreens ask for your name and phone number when you get an ink cartridge refilled?

because we as a nation have not said they can not. it is said that down the line those names are worth 7.9cents each and half that on each re-sell of information. the worth comes from the savings on conducting a survey and the re-sell end. if i gave you 10cents+ each time you asked...would you just stop asking?...Why does Walgreens ask for your name and phone number when you get an ink cartridge refilled?
No this is not the correct answer. What good is selling a name and phone number? You can look that up in a phone book. The real answer is this: We need to find your order when you come back to pick it up and some people have the same name so we use phone number. We don't sell you're info. Report Abuse

Ha just kidding ;-)
Give them a call and say you were curious as to why they needed your phone # and name when you purchased the cartridge. That's a good question.





Call any Walgreen store.
