No, stores pay the fee to the provider (MasterCard/Visa/American Express/etc) for processing the transaction. This is why you see those little signs that say “minimum credit card purchase $5” or w/e in smaller shops, because if the transaction is too small they lose money on it.

You might actually inflict $2.50 in losses on the location for processing a single transaction for a $0.50 sauce cup.
