Needed to grab something to grill on way home last night. Time of the essence.

Our Dierbergs is located in a cluster [expletive]. Target/Trader Joes same thing- cluster [expletive] that time of day -plus it but doesn't carry what I want (beer wise). Walmart Sams - not even on my radar. Whole Foods is too expensive, and a cluster [expletive] and the CEO guy is some sort of right wing douchebag.

So I ended up at Schnucks and used my debit card. I haven't had time recently to follow this thing. Hoping that my theory that it has to be safer now than ever applies.

BIG time....when every person I speak to has had it happen TO them and if not to them it has happened to at least 5-10 people they know its a HUGE problem. It has been going on for close to a month now.

F Schnucks.

Obviously by hacked we're meaning that anyone that has used a credit/debit card at their stores has the possiblity of their card being compromised.

Yes. Last month. And the reason people are so upset and no longer shopping there is not because they were hacked, but because they didn't share that information and let shoppers continue using their debit/credit cards.

I still shop there. I figure Dierberg's and/or Shop and Save are next.

In the civil suits that have been brought so far, Schnucks is riding a fine line saying it was financial info that was stolen and not personal info. MO law requires that you immediately notify any customer whose personal info has been compromised/stolen.
