    If imposing a minimum credit card purchase was not allowed, how could they impose a ten dollar minimum for credit card purchases??

        Therefore that alcohol establishment was running the risk of being fined by the government for their illegal activity?

          I never said it was “illegal” to do it, it was against the terms of their credit card acceptance. They weren’t putting their business or liquor license at risk, only their ability to accept credit cards.

            Ok thanks for explaining. But to be clear, you did say their credit card policy was something they got away with just like we get away with speeding in our cars, and speeding in cars is illegal & punishable by law. 🤷🏼‍♀️ But now you explained it was only against the terms of their credit card acceptance. They weren’t putting their business or liquor license at risk, only their ability to accept credit cards. 😄

              I can see how that paints a legal picture, and you’re not wrong reading that way. I only meant that speeding is something easy to get away with even if it’s not allowed.
