Yes, it DOES add cost! That is the point you fail to get! The fee that

We get your point. Merchant wins. Credit card banks win. Consumer loses.

Most of us don't pay the vig, however. That would add insult to injury.

Why pay cash when you are already being charged to use a CC?

Why not pay cash?

Why use a CC when you know you can't afford to pay for what you buy?

I don't.

Why run up CC charges with the intention of stiffing the CC company?
That's dishonest, cheating and stealing? It's Harryesque, if you will.

I don't.
