they may have been doing a survey to find out where their customers are from and what the spending habits of customers from different areas are in the store etc, were they asking others did u notice?

They probably have systems where whoever puts the product on file (at head office) can choose whether information is needed and what age they need to be over; in which case someone at head office's taken the mick.

I've got a saturday job at a well known competitor and, for a week, ipod covers could only technically be sold to someone over thirty something.

next time ask them why they are taking your details, ask them if it is protected and if they will be using these details for market research, ask them if they are going to use your details to send targeted advertising, and tell them if they ARE doing any of these things that you're NOT going to give them your details.

Bingo, I think this was mentioned in GD a couple of days ago.

It's generally down to market research, by fnding out where people are coming to the store from they can work out it's rough "catchment" area, which helps when they are targetting advertising (at areas with few current customers) or working out where to put new stores (if an area has a lot of customers but no store near it).
 
In future just refuse to give it as you wouldn't give out you phone number to a total stranger would you.
