You still have pricing differences for cash vs credit card? *I

That price difference should be available to whomever decided to pay
cash.
If the dealer (furniture, whatever) is willing to pay a credit card
company 3 1/2% then he should give that as a discount for cash.
Problem is... bankers don't like things to happen in cash..neither
does the IRS (Revenue Canada).


I asked some merchant about that. They said that the hassles of
handling cash (bank charges for depositing cash around here!) were
almost more than the cost of credit.
