So, American Express is urging us all to go out today and shop at local small businesses using our Amex cards.
I have a feeling that small businesses are finding this concept bittersweet, ‘cos Amex merchant fees are ridiculously high.
So high, in fact, that when I shop at a small business, I leave my Amex in my wallet and use my Visa instead.
