I don't know if it's nationwide, but here it's not actually legal to charge the CC fee to the customer.

Except of course for gas stations who list it as a "cash discount" …

The bike shop I worked for didn't take credit cards for a while. Until I asked the kids working weekends to write down all the stuff people didn't buy because we didn't take cards.
It ended up being more than our sales both weekends...
The owner got set up with a card processor pretty quickly.
