I guess they just charge everyone the higher price to account for the credit card use. I don't get this points thing. When everyone does it, the vendors have no choice but to raise all their prices. They have to pay the credit card company for using the card. This makes it so someone with cash is actually paying more than they should, all because everyone is charging everything on credit cards. The only ones getting a bonus are the banks. You pay a higher price, but get some or most of it back in points. All you do is trade cash money for the same amount or less in points. Still not getting it, but if everyone is doing it, its hard to buck the system. Like I said, even if you pay cash, you are paying extra. Im sure I will get flamed, so go ahead. lol
