This once again happened today as I was pumping my #*%#€%¥ $5 gas at the Circle K. Lots of times I’ll prepay inside. Then I’ll get $5 away from the total and the damn pump slows down to a crawl. Why the f#%€?! Maybe with 20 cents to go or something.

I always forget their crap pumps do this and it never ceases to piss me off.

Why would you prepay? I thought only people trying to get 3 bucks on pump 7 did that.

Who the hell prepays besides illegals with cash only?

That sounds like a 2nd or 3rd world problem.

Why not if I’m getting myself an ice cold Diet American Dew? I’m there, one transaction.

I found your problem.

Pay at the pump, pump, then pull up to a parking spot to go in and get your drinks and snacks.

Two transactions would be quicker.

Start pumping. Go inside and get your cancer drink. Come back out and you are done.

It is the house door. The amount of times I turn my car around and go back to push the button on the door again is insane.

Just buy $5.20 worth of gas. Stop at $5 when it slows down.

If it slowed down then, it wouldn’t be an issue. We’re talking paying for $50 and it slows after it hits $45.

I’m getting all kinds of pushback, but who buys $5 of gas?

I haven’t seen the inside of a gas station in years, lol. If my card doesn’t work I’ll go to another service station with working pay at the pumps. RaceTrac for example has pumps that work(pay at the pump) 99.99% of the time. Most of the time I go there.
