But customer could have easy given CB a big FU follwed by the finger as they retreated into their house.



Haven't seen a discount for cash in a longtime, unless you are talking dropping the GST... Which from a business perspective is starting to get a little hard.

Also I don't know why businesses would give a discount on a transaction media that is infinitely more expensive to administer. From a business perspective I can understand why businesses favor EFT only, given how ridiciously expensive it is becoming to provide cash as a payment method.
Maybe with big retail stores paying cash will not get you discount, but I can tell you for sure, with many other types of businesses about cash is king for discounts.
