It seems I'm the only person doing this, but I refuse to buy gas from any gas station that charges more for credit card transactions, regardless of if I'm paying cash or credit. I don't understand why everyone else just rolled over on this one, and supports it. So far my theory has been "if a gas station offers gas at one price, there's another near by charging the same price, cash or credit".

It's against the agreements to charge a fee for credit card use.... the gas stations claim they are giving a cash discount, which is somehow allowed... and apparently different that a credit card fee...

Now if only I could get all the "insurance" agents to leave me alone.
While shopping for car insurance recently, one of the insurance companies (gieco, allstate, ect., no weird companies, don't know which though) sold my info to netquote... ever since then I get about 3 calls a day, all from different numbers. Anyone have any tips for stopping this nonsense?

This is a good idea... Lets see this guy take a pile of his finely textured ground beef straight from the sanitizer, mold it into a hamburger, grill it and eat it... lets say cooked medium?
