Best Buy is one of six or seven chains in the Columbus area that has been doing this for awhile. I didn't mind too much when they asked for zip codes, but they ask for my phone number when I purchase a dvd or cd with cash.

I generally just give them the local business number of one of the other chains that asks for phone numbers.
