I post according to the FAQs. They used to be CASH, then changed to CREDIT and then back to CASH -- unless they changed it again recently which I doubt.

The reason to post CASH, is stated as it is the lowest price, but more practically is that except in places like California where they apparently have to post cash and credit when different, most places only post the CASH price at the curb/price board/street sign. And, this is where the bulk of prices are posted from as (except for those driving for a living) most folks don't file up or pull into multiple stations per day.

You should post CASH discount in the comments. Unfortunately, most don't bother and the comment field is not durable and is over-written with a blank when the next person doesn't add the comment.

Even with dual price fields, we will have problems unless 1) they are tied to the MSL, and 2) we have a flag that shows that a station is dual priced.

I'll usually post the credit price from my phone, but I will also add a comment about cash vs. credit. if I'm posting online.
