Last thing I need is to use a cred card somewhere and have the number stolen. Thankfully, my card is only good up till $3000 dollars but, I sure would hate to lose that money. Plus, by the time they charge you all the fees, fines, and surcharges a 75 dollar gas bill becomes a 100 bucks. Some of my friends live on a cash only basis and don't even have a bank.
But you think it's perfectly fine to hand complete strangers a piece of paper with your bank account number and other personal details on it? At least with a credit card, I have recourse to protect my money. The 5% cash rebate we get on just our fuel purchases buts us well ahead of paying in cash or by check.
