Popeye’s Lotto And Snacks

Easy to miss from the street, as it’s snuggled inside Westminister centre, where Save on Foods.
Got your typical magazines, junk food, cigs, magazines and lottery goodies, of course.

Went it to get $ 5 worth of scratch & win tickets as a stocking stuffer. Handed her my debit card and she said there was a $ 10 minimum on debit/​credit transactions. I said something along the lines of ‘Are you kidding?’ And she pulled out a $ 10 scratch & win and suggested I get that too.
Uh. No thank you.
I understand that they are a small business and that most small businesses do have a minimum charge for debit (NEVER credit). But that minimum is NEVER over $ 5. And if you are purchasing something under $ 5 there is usually a surcharge of .25 — .50 cents. Never have I had someone try to up sell me by refusing to take my money! They should really rethink their business practices before someone reports them to Visa or MasterCard.
