Most businesses that accept an atm card for goods and services don't sell 99 cent hamburgers. The cost from the financial institution for the use of this service could be as much as 60 cents (or more) to the establishment. It doesn't make much sense to sell a 99 cent burger... get 99 cents for it... then pay Bank of America (or some other banking institution) 60 % of it. The fact is that it costs a lot of money for banks to provide that service. Yes... it's YOUR money... but, they don't HAVE to give it to you 24 hours a day on demand just because you want it. It's a service and some services are optional. We have to decide for ourselves if being able to get a crappy hambvurger at 11:00 at night when we don't have a penny in our pockets is worth anything extra. If not... do without a hamburger..... eat at home, or carry 2-3 dollars around in your pocket. ;-) Jack Tyler
