I went to the grocery store and only had a few items. I didn't see a need to punch in all my details to look up my card for $4 worth of groceries. The cashier used his card on my transaction. Is that OK?

Now I do not care I didn't use mine, but I can see others having an issue with it.

Nothing is member priced here. It is strictly to get money off of groceries or money off of gas

Not an employee discount, a rewards card, where you earn points for every purchase and a certain amount gets you a reward like 5 bucks or something

as a customer, i wouldn't care in the slightest. and if it's one of those stores like Kroger where you only get the 'sale price' if you have a loyalty card, I would applaud them for helping me save money.

I wouldn't really care, but I see why people would. Some people have an issue with other people capitalizing off of their work/expenditure, even if to a minor degree like this. (I'm also the sort that would probably verbally question what they were doing if I saw it, unaware of what was going on, so it's possible that I could unintentionally narc on someone.)

You would be surprised at how many would care, particularly among the gamer community.

Yes because most stores don't pay enough or have proper sick/vacation leave.

in Brazil there's a program for something like that maintained by the state and they have canceled people's rewards due to fraud (e.g. people using their ID to be credited for other people's purchases), so I voted no

Personally, I fully support it.

Doubt the companies will appreciate it.

When I lived by a food lion, they would scan what I assumed was a store card to get discounts. Giant Eagle prices are set. There isn't a store price. I could see people getting upset about it. The savings is pretty trivial. The fuel perks is the only upside, but I rarely use the gas station affiliated with the rewards program.
I remember thinking before wondering if employees at Walmart or other places went through the bins of self check and scanned then on thar fetch app. You could get a lot of good cash back doing that.

If I get a discount take whatever points you earn from entering their rewards card. Win win in my book. Of course I'm also not the employer.

I'm not sure what you mean, but member benefits are definitely applicable to Giant Eagle in that you can receive discounts (these are posted) on your groceries if a club card is scanned automatically. So often times as a customer you'd be saving money on the groceries immediately if an employee scanned their card in place of yours.
