Default Cheapest gas around

...and I ain't talkin' methane.

Cruising to work yesterday on the lovely toll road, I realized I had to stop for gas. Usually the prices are about the same on the toll road, so I figured I may as well stop.

Pull up to the pump and look at the advertised prices on the cardboard cutouts....87 2.17.....89 2.24......93 2.32

Damn I think, gonna take a lot today. Then I noticed that the electronic price marker lit up on the pump was different........87 2.17.....89 2.24.......93 1.32

Well somebody must have mis-keyed it, but I thought "what the hell, might as well give it a try"

Sure enough I went from empty to full with under $15. Sweet deal, and next time I need the fuel you can bet I'm gonna stop there.

yep local places here have also made the same mistake, by mis-pricing their fuels,
but are quickly changed as soon as found out,
Here, it was the managers who screwed up.
