Your gift cards are not good here. How does a gas station sell people gift cards and then not let them use it to buy gas? There is no reason with today's technology that you shouldn't be able to use them at the pump.
I was given a $100 gift card. I unsuccessfuly tried to use it at the pump. When I went inside and asked the cashier, she acted like she had never seen a gift card before and when I asked if I could use it at the pump, she told me she didn't know. When I asked if I could pay in advance, she said I could use the whole amount. My car can't physically handle $100 in gas. I asked if I could pump gas and then pay but wasn't allowed to do that either. So, I went somewhere else with my apparently useless gift card unless I want to buy a bunch of overpriced snacks. read more
