Lots of places won't take AmEx or Discover (some of the highest fees in the business.)

CostCo currently only takes Visa (no MC.) Sam's used to only take Discover. It's rare, but it happens. In this case it's also only for "credit" purchases, "debit" is ok for any card, but the fees are way less for "debit" than "credit".

I've only run into one place in 2 years of having a Discover card that wouldn't take it, seeing Amex not accepted is rather common.
