Most ATMs only give the option for a minimum cash withdrawal of $20.
However, many discount stores, gas stations, grocery stores, and pharmacies offer cash back on purchases with no minimum amount.
Below, we provide the list of stores that offer cash back in small amounts, plus information about limits and accepted payment methods.
The List
Many stores provide cash-back options for debit or credit transactions, and a limited number also offer cash back for personal check transactions.
The stores listed below have no minimums for cash back amounts, meaning you can get back as little as $5 or $10.
Keep in mind that you must make a purchase to get cash back — often, though, all you need to buy is something small like a bottle of water or a pack of gum.
We’ve ordered the lists below starting with the best overall options in each category.
