rggoodie Moderator United States 23494 Posts	Posted 05/30/2008 10:09 pm Now no one is happy about the rising prices of Petrol (gasoline) around the world, but my local Petrol (Gas) station has just brought back a program that has not existed since the I think it was the 70s The price on the street sign is $3.99.9 CASH but when you pull up to the pump each pump has a sign informing you the price is $4.05.9 and you receive a 6 cent per gallon discount if you pay cash inside. Now you ask how is this helping me. I am friends with the owner of this gas station and I have been invited as my time allows to come in once a day and check the coins and currency that is passing through their register. After just one day the amount of cash sales has increased 400%. Come to papa you lovely old coins and banknotes. Report this Post to the Staff

Jays-Dad Pillar of the Community United States 790 Posts	Posted 06/03/2008 10:36 pm Since my cash back if I use my credit card at the gas station is 3%, that works out to a 12c a gallon discount. What was the cash discount? 6c? Ummmm, I'll use credit, thanks though. Report this Post to the Staff
Master Gardener New Member United States 38 Posts	Posted 06/03/2008 11:43 pm I resist the current financial system best I can, even with a prime credit score- I don't use cards at all and get angry at the commercials I see for life being better wiithout cash. I just can't stand knowing if I use a credit card a bankSTER gets a cut of my sale and gets to track my purchases. Cash rules! I was thinking of trying to start a vending machine business- that would be an awesome way to have coin-flow. Report this Post to the Staff
