In addition, the chocolate bar and lemonade did not warrant a receipt, probably meaning that it was processed via VEPS, which people here say that there is no DCC for. Both were Visa cards.
DCC in general is incredibly rare in the US. About the only places that'd actually do it is duty free shops, if that.
