CASH discount at restaurants now...just within the last week, one of my fave places, not "high end" but not cheap either, presented my check with a normal menu price, then an additional line "cash" with a 4% discount...asking about this, i was informed that since they had to raise prices, wanted to give customers an option of discount to offset the price increase...hmmm ok, but i'm wondering if there's more to this story, maybe suppliers wanting payment in cash, or simply cash-flow for restaurant...this is a local restaurant with maybe a dozen locations around dfw metroplex...another single location local restaurant is doing same cash discount thing...sign of the times?
This is true at every gas station in my area. It's about not paying credit card fees. Running a card for your purchase costs the business money, and most small businesses can't afford to eat any unnecessary costs right now.
