Serious question about mark of the beast/chip?

I think now that store's are insisting you get there savings card is a sign the chip is close ... each time you go to the market they have you scan your card which has all your info, and they tell you about the savings you are receiving.. What i do is get my card and tell them i will bring back the application, but never do. I still use the card and get the savings without them having my info.. as far as the end time and mark of the beast i hope i am gone by then.
