They can also get names from hospitals they have contracts with and 
sometimes the bureau of vital statistics. I had my second baby at home 
with a midwife, never purchased anything with a credit card that would 
give my name to a store, and purposely never signed any registries as I 
was deluged with photographers calling after my first was born. On her 6 
month birthday, I received coupons for free quart containers of Nestle 
Carnation follow up formula, liquid of course.
