It like that over here in YHM too. Although its not against the law, I'm pretty sure that Visa / Mastercard have a rule that regardless of payment method, the price must be the same.

You know, sometimes I feel guilty using a credit card on items I know have a very low profit margin....like groceries. You just know that the increasing use of CCs will drive the price up, and bite us all in the end.
