Smiths implementing "cash back fee" for debit card purchases

It seems Smiths got delayed but it is joining the other Kroger divisions in having a fee for cash back with debit card transactions. They are going to want a .50 fee for cash back $1 to $100 starting in about a week (this policy change was posted on pinpads in the past couple days).
Okay then. No fee for cash back at Safeway, WinCo, or Wal Mart... Even if I only get cash back about twice a year from a store when paying by debit card (any store), this is yet another thing that comes off as negative at Kroger.
Funny no fee for under $1 of cash back. I find it hard to believe if I ask for $5 or $10 of cash back it costs them .50 to process that.
I was recently denied cash back when I asked at a Raleys. No cash back prompt ever came up on the pinpad and when I asked about it they told me they weren't doing cash back right now. Not sure if that change was just a one off at that particular store, or time of day (it was late at night), or something.
