I think its great that some stations are finally charging more for credit, or giving the cash paying customers a break, whichever way you look at it. The credit card companies charge RIDICULOUS fees, and I'd just as soon pay cash. With all the reliance that we have on banks, (the ease of using debit cards, online payments, credit cards, etc) is what I think is part of the weak dollar problem. How often do you SEE your money anymore? A lot of people, probably never. You get a pay check that gets direct deposited, and swipe the debit card wherever you go, make payments with online payments, and all of a sudden, your bank account is just like monopoly money. Some people might argue with me, but all this ease of use, lazy american bs can't be good for the economy.
