Weaver Street Market tip

Yesterday, I made a small purchase at Weaver Street Market and learned something new.

It seems that VISA charges WSM 50 cents for every transaction, including those for only a few dollars - IF you push the debit option with your VISA card. However, if you opt for credit, it is only a small percentage charge that is less than the 50 cents.

The rule of thumb, the WSM person told me, is that if using a VISA card for something under $15, go "credit". If over 15, use "debit".

Always nice to save a few cents for a highly valued Southern Village whenever we can!
