The problem is that many obviously don't care how much gas they're using.
They just write a bigger check to VISA next month. They want to drive that
huge pickup or SUV as fast as they want and whatever it costs is... whatever
it costs.

Blink blink....people actually buy gas with Visa?????

Cash..is king

Costco doesn't take cash.

In what state do you live?

Pete lives here, with us, in the state of confusion.


In California, Costco takes cash..and even at
the gas pumps.

Here in OR, Costco takes cash, debit cards, and AMEX (the sole credit
card they're associated with.) Long ago, their gas stations used to
take all credit cards, but they stopped that for some reason.

They stopped taking all credit cards a few years ago because they
didn't like the costs. I guess they worked out a deal with AmEx which
keeps the costs to them down.
