As Rexster stated and others from a comp forum I'm on, RD has had a number of issues in the past where credit cards were compromised after being used there.  Play it safe, take cash.

As far as select to choice, you'll notice a difference if you have cooked a lot of briskets, but for the most part, the biggest difference will be the choice will take a longer cook time due to the additional fat content and marbling in the meat.  I have cooked a number of choice next to select and in the end, the meat is just as good from either. 
 
Update:

Hi Went to RD today with my KCBS member card and was able to shop..Got a 11.5 IBPchoice packer for $2.57 I also got a 3 pack of BB ribs for $2.79 lb.While I was waiting in the check out line I started talking to the person behind, he asked me if I had Angus packer, he said they were much better IBP. I told him I didn't see any Angus packers, afte I loaded my car I went back in and sure enough there were Angus or Black Angus packers for $2.82 lb. Next time I'll try one and see. Is there really a differnce between the two?

Dans PS Dress warm it was 80* here in NJ inside was very cold, good thing I brought my hoddy along with me.
 
RD membership is required at entry (Scan A Card, No ID Needed) then again at check out. So you could use anyones card to shop there. I had a friend who owns a restaurant to go and get 3 cards, so I use theirs. i have used it in three different states too, only questioned once at check out when person looked at business address but she didnt care.

I usually buy a 3pack of baby backs every time there as they are very reasonable priced and meaty. As for pork picnic or shoulder, they usually have them in 2 packs and around 16-20lbs, they are usually similar price to a grocery but you might hit a deal every once and a while.

RD is also one of my favorite stores because the bulk prices on fruit, vegtables and cheese cannot be beat by any sams or costco. my last trip i bought 6 pineapples for $8 ! also usually have great prices on peppers including red,green, chili, habanero, jalepeno....any you need when making alot of sauce or chilli. I recomend to take a friend and check it out if you are able.
