Any chance y'all would be willing to post a list of the stations whose hoses you stabbed? Just so's none of us get incinerated by innocently filling up at them?

"When a gas station upsets me
AUTHOR: mr rik - miami (USA)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, October 04, 2011POSTED: Tuesday, October 04, 2011 I just p***k their hose and drive off."
Then the next person to pump gas gets sprayed with gas from the "pricked" hose, a spark sets them, their car and kids on fire.....but it all works well for you as the gas station probably burns to the ground too. What's a little collateral damage?

"Here's their trick: The pump's numeral "5" looks very similar to a "3", so that you just don't notice or maybe not believe your eyes until you see the dollars skyrocketing! You've been "had", or rather "Gassed" in this case"
And an "S" looks like a "5" and a "1" looks like an "l". I'll bet while they were changing their price signs, they saw you, changed the "5" to look more like a "3" and sat back to watch the fun. ;)
They didn't rip you off at all, you made several erroneous and careless assumptions and got burned...NOT their fault.
Man up, you did most of it to yourself.

In my county in SC, I'm paying 2.98 and 2.97. Sam's Club gas is 2.93! While we're still too high for a guy who paid 23.9 as a teenager, but I'm still glad it's as low as it is. But geez, over 5 bucks a gallon because it's close to an airport? Definitely a rip off.

"Barely glanced at the tiny pump display"
"they all read $5.49"
You failed to properly read the price that was posted on all the pumps. In the great American Free Enterprise System merchants have the right to charge whatever they want. Not a rip off.
