Depends on the type of store. If it's like a locally run gas station and they have a contract with an oil company that provides pumps and cash registers, everything run through credit they only get paid that money at certain intervals, normally 30 days. If it's credit or cash, it's money they pocket immediately, so that may be a little incentive for people to use cash so all their money isn't tied up for an entire month.
