I'd say it's the other way around - you're paying extra for not consenting to tracking, so it's similar (and even worse) model that i.e Facebook has. There's no way the discount card discount is not factored in the normal price calculation, and I vager most shops are counting on the product not being sold for a bit until it's it's turn for a discount.
