Very Frustrating. I pass by here at times and I stop for gas. The problem is that you ALWAYS have to go inside to get your receipt vs. getting your receipt and leaving immediately after. You have to go inside and see the clerk - meanwhile, someone else is using your pump and probably erasing your pumping info. Yesterday, I had to drive away from the pump, park, walk inside and wait 10 mins before giving up and leaving. There was a couple there who might have bought gas and they were also buying some canned beverages. The clerk had to count not only cash, but pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, lots of them, as she conversed with them. Meanwhile, there are also people behind me looking to pay for pumping of their gas, as the line at the pumps grows. After such a long wait, I had to leave as I had frozen food in the car and a take-n-bake pizza in the car - and still had about a 45 min drive. I keep all my receipts so I can verify them when the credit card bill statement comes. If not receipt, it could be an illegitimate charge. WHY
CAN'T GAS STATIONS KEEP THE PAPER FILLED AT THE PUMPS FOR RECEIPTS - SOME NEVER SEEM TO DO THIS AND MANDATE YOU COME IN..... The nice idea behind pumping and getting a receipt is that you can leave immediately after, and not have to kill more time, wait in line, and take up anyones time behind the counter! Once I know that I always have to go inside for a receipt or if that is more the norm, I stop going to those places. read more
