I was going to post the link to that article but it was on the 15 minute update module and would have been gone by the time anyone read it. I believe the one station that has already quit accepting credit cards said that they only made about a 2 cent profit per gallon after the credit card processing fee and the more gas anyone bought the more the credit card company took because their percentage of charges was more than his percent of profit. It showed a picture of him at the gas pumps with big signs blocking the credit card slots that said NO CREDIT CARDS ACCEPTED.

Edit: Joe I am putting the link here but it may not work as I had to pull it up from the rotating headling module.

The link works Ron. I think it will because it is not pointing to the rotator but to the story.
