Back in the day we used to hold "store card swapping parties" where you'd bring your store card, drop it in the pile, and then everyone randomly picks a new one. Do it about once a month.
Now of course the store cards are tied to apps that give you coupons on things you buy, so it's more in your interest not to mess with them.
