Any establishment that accepts VISA cards is forbidden, by VISA, to make you buy a certain amount before you can charge it on your card. So if you go into a restaurant or liquor store or wherever, they are not allowed to make you buy $10.00 worth of stuff before you can use your VISA. They are not allowed to make you buy even 1 cent. The stores do this because they are charged by VISA for every transaction and they lose money if you don't buy something that costs more than what they are charged. Regardless, VISA will drop some heavy fines on the establishment or discontinue their service altogether if they find out about it.
