Therefore, you walk in there, swipe your card for five dollars worth of soda and chips, and you're card gets declined because you're a shitbag with no money, that store owner still gets charged for swiping that card.

Similarly, if you only buy a fifty cent bag of crackers that they're making a 20 cent profit off of, and the debit/credit transaction fee is 25 cents, they're losing five cents by selling you that bag of crackers via debit/credit.

Damn those shitbags.
