I have seen a sign saying "All prices reflect 3% cash discount". This is mainly at a big gun store and such around here in GA. There is one store in particular that charges 3% more for credit cards on every item. If you go in and buy a 5 dollar bottle of Breakfree they add 3% more plus the sales tax on the subtotal. I don't shop there prices way to high attitudes way to bad and intelligence way to lacking.

There is another store down the road from them that uses the no "Credit Card fee's" slogan and is making good money, I know the owner cool guy reminds me of John Goodman.

Old guy I deal with now is the kitchen table type, had card machine for a little over a year and it became such a hassle he stopped using it. He stated he was charged 6% per swipe. He has a 120 day layaway now. I really like dealing with him. Open Sunday evenings

I can't find it in the article, but was this class action lawsuit?

If so I doubt they people really affected by this will see a dime of that money or benefit from it.
