Yes, I used to be a member of one company's program but dropped it when I found their selection no longer matched what I liked to read.
My suggestion was predicated on the ideas that the discount would be more significant (20-40% off), with a very large selection on hand. Retailers like Target and Walmart routinely have discounts like this but they lack the selection of regular bookstores, and they can make higher profits on other items. Can a B&M pure bookseller survive with similar discounts? I don't know.
