Most retailers use the same ranges for their rewards cards, UPC-A barcodes starting with 4. So even if not intentional, if their system is configured to allow an unregistered card to receive discounts, doesn't validate registration at all, or the number collides with a legitimate rewards card, you'll receive the sale pricing. Similarly, if you simply use a common phone number like xxx-867-5309, 800-555-1212, the store's phone number, etc., you'll probably get discounts too.
