This is interestingly regional: in the part of NJ where I live, every small business has an Amex "shop local" sticker on their front window

Used to be every year, Amex in Canada would run a "Shop Local" promo where you'd get $5 back on a transaction over $10 at smaller places x5 in a month, and let you look up who's a part of the program on a map.

Then you'd visit a lot of them and they'd claim to not accept Amex!
