Thank God for Stupid Gas Station Attendants .

Fill Her Up, Skippy !!!

If there is one certainty in life, it's this: There is no substitute for incompetence.... Need proof? Here it is. While you and I are all excited about paying less than $3 a gallon for gas once again, the folks in Wisconsin Falls, Wisconsin really got a deal this week - thanks to a glitch by an employee of the local gas station.

What happened at JP Raval's station? Someone was changing the price for the newest shipment of petrol, and instead of punching the price in at $3.49 a gallon, they put it in as $.349 ........ Yes, somewhere between 30-40 customers made off with 200-300 gallons of the discounted gas before they caught the error. One of them was Kelly Joosten, who proudly showed off her bill of $8.85 for 25.36 gallons for her Expedition, which usually costs about $100 to fill up. Nice deal.... What does this make me think of ???

Makes me miss the Sinclair Dinosaur I got at the NY Worlds Fair in '65.

I am one of a kind, Liz. Could be good, could be bad. Depends on where you're coming from.

The Sinclair station in Hopkins, MN currently has the cheapest gas in the country. $1.89 a gallon.
