I never carry cash and much prefer the protections like chargebacks that credit offers me. Plus, you steal my card, I'm out nothing. You steal my cash, I'm out the full amount. I hate cash

I hate surcharges and won't shop at places that have them (parking and gas stations might be the exception due to the limited amount of the former and the ubiquitous charges at the latter). But I think any surcharge over and above the interchange should be illegal
