Shouldn't they (in case you're not telling) ALWAYS use local currency, and if they don't, you've the right to void the transaction? Of course that's annoying (and eating your time) but I guess if enough people would tell them so, then they'll automatically choose local currency unless someone actually tells them they want to get scammed intentionally.
Ie, we intentionally get DCC'ed by not saying anything, then have it reversed, so that the cashiers understand the process and by default will not choose DCC as they fear another voiding process
