Stop supporting that damn discount card so ferociously. I had clerks that didn't want to check out any purchases unless I listened to the stupid spiel.
Some of us don't buy enough for the card to be worth it. Amazon has most, and places like Alibris can find the older books, even if the postage is prohibitive. And they don't bug you to buy a discount card.
(Amazon does push Prime - but it covers other things besides books, so it might be worth it to some)
Couple of times, I just dropped the books on the counter and left.
