Yes.  Think of it this way.  How many stores that if allowed to charge
extra for credit purchases will prominantly state this fact in their
advertisement.  I too am very annoyed when I buy something on sale and
whip out my credit card and am told there will be a 3% surcharge because
the sale price only applies to cash purchases (where did it say that in
the Ad, or on your door, or posted anywhere but on a 3x5 card glued to
the register...FOO).  This happened to me once in my favorite (grumble)
record store.  I don't know if it's legal, but they sure seemed to be
getting away with it.

Food for thought:  How come four $50 tires costs $300 by the time you
drive out the door?  You want them on the car?  No thanks, I'll eat them
here.  - Gallagher
