You'd be surprised what people call the cops for. Traffic jam at a gas station? I've had worse.

Unless this particular gas station likes losing lots of money, then yes. Maybe a pissed off employee did it on purpose, who knows.

Accident, I had believed someone fat fingered the price but apparently it was a computer glitch? And that store had to have lost over 600 gallons of gas as the deal/loss had been going on since at least noon yesterday not the three hours reported.

I never use 91 either. In texas, we had nice 93 octane at every gas station.

Yeah, he told me it was a computer glitch. But it has to be a big hit $$ wise. Oh, and they lost more then double the 600 gallons reported.

I kinda thought that was them as well, very nice family. The son told me that they can price gas at any price for only one hour per day, otherwise it's a set price over what they pay for it. That's going to hurt.
