Having come back from a mechanic around the corner yesterday, I stopped in as my first official time. However, I had been here before, but never for gas. Although I watch this station closely every time I go past and this station is higher-priced than most others, I knew I had to try it to get a close feel.
But it bugs me to tell you that I had to stop in my tracks to figure out which pump is for which type of gas. None of the three nozzles (on any of the hook-ups) are labeled. I almost took the wrong one for that time). I was using a pay-at-the-pump transaction, but after running through the Alt-ID for my Speedy Rewards and my GasBuddy card, I was astounded that nothing is labeled on the pumps. And besides that, once I did eenie-meenie this (hoping that the one that was separated was the 87-unleaded, which it was), I couldn't figure out how you select the pump. It surely wasn't labeled that you pull the lever out (unlike most others) to select this grade.
Maybe it's not time for this station to switch to adding Apple Pay/mobile pay functionality at the pumps. Perhaps it's time to find a cheaper solution to labeling things. Even if you just take a piece of tape and stick some labels on, it would make it more clear for customers to know which grade is for which nozzle, because I was baffled yesterday (and I don't generally get baffled often at gas stations).
In the past, I've been inside to get general merchandise at the convenience store, but that's a different scoop (since the last time I was inside here was in 2017). read more
