The "cash discount" at gas stations ticks me off because it's a total end-around the law. In the late 80s they made it illegal to charge a fee for a credit card transaction. All the "cash discount it" is a rebranding of the old "credit charge". It's functionally identical. If I recall correctly, some gas stations even tried it at the time the law passed and they were made to stop. I guess it's been long enough that no one remembers.
