Barney Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Did anyone else here see the CNN story about the Shell station that was only charging $0.002 a gallon for gas? I could not believe it. This one guy the interviewed filled his truck, brought back his boat, his other car and then filled the bed of this truck with gas cans and filled them before he told the station attendent. Nice work guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generalms02 Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 That guy is stupid!! Why would he tell anybody? If he wanted to tell someone, he should have told ALL of his friends, nieghbors, co-workers, and just anyone walking down the street!

TimC3 Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 That would be the point.. Pay at the pump with the card and don't mention anything to the attendent.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS_bnoon_SS Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I did that one time, though not quite as cheap as that guy got away with... It was back when gas was 1.80 a gallon and someone put the decimal in the wrong place and I got it for 18 cents a gallon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolBlueSS Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 If it was just the one pump they could have shut the pump off, or tagged it as out of order. But hey, their bad. Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now he will have to eat over 2 grand in loses because one of his employes probably set the pump wrong. I guess thats the way this world is today though if there a chance for people to stab you in the back most will take advantage of that.

mbpsychoSS Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 i heard that someone hacked into the key pay and changed the prices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC3 Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Somehow I doubt that's actually possible, but if it is, I'd like to know how! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
