This is interestingly regional: in the part of NJ where I live, every small business has an Amex "shop local" sticker on their front window

AmEx has worked hard to keep their home turf around New York City friendly to their cards.
They did this campaign in Sydney a while back.
Used to be every year, Amex in Canada would run a "Shop Local" promo where you'd get $5 back on a transaction over $10 at smaller places x5 in a month, and let you look up who's a part of the program on a map.
Then you'd visit a lot of them and they'd claim to not accept Amex!
