However, my truck has a 36 gallon tank and it's crazy what a difference the prices make in filling it up
A $0.10 difference per gallon yields you a princely three and one-half dollars!

Over time, that $3.50 compounded becomes approximately not worth waiting in line in a shite neighborhood.

Funny no one said that the gas was really 50 cents a gallon.

38.4 cents is taxes.

Hell I'd fill up just for the novelty of it. And actually get a receipt.

Knowing I'd never get .88 gas again.

The only way I'm stopping on Broad for gas is if my gas gage says I only have one mile left. And even then I might just just see if I can coast to the next gas station on another street if I run out.

To save $8 over the place that has it for $1.40 down the road.



I mean, 8 bucks is 8 bucks

I wouldn't sit in that, but I get that a lot more than I do the dudes who wait in similar or worse lines to save <$2 at CostCo or WalMart

Beware. I deal with a state inspector who said they had to purchase equipment to analyze fuel for water and other contaminants. There were so many reports of the ragheads hlstation owners putting water in the tanks to increase volume it was playing hell with everyone. Especially southeast of Broussard all the way to the state line.

You realize it says Shell coming soon so it's really not a Shell station.
