Diva e blogs:
I shopped in a local gift shop today, enticed by the after Christmas Sale sign in the window. A few "must haves" grabbed my attention and when I went to pay for them, I made a decision to pay cash, instead of charging the already substantially discounted items.
That may not sound like much of a Good Deed, but to a small retailer, that extra 3-5% not paid to a credit card merchant is substantial, especially on merchandise that is already heavily discounted. I would like to see this merchant stay in business and not be gobbled up by the large retail chains. Usually I charge everything because I benefit from it - one dollar charged is one frequent flier mile.
Not using a credit card today: PRICELESS
