Whenever I go to the gas station I generally always get $20 worth of regular gasoline. I get $20 because it’s easy to calculate if I’m getting the right rewards (5% cashback) on my credit card statements and I hate it when you ask for a fill up and the amount is $xx.14. They (gas station attendants) will pump up to the nearest dollar even though you’re paying by credit. Sometimes they pump enough to round up that you can smell the extra overflow as you’re driving.
So the other day I asked for $20 which usually gets me somewhere between 3/4 of the tank to full when gas was pricier. The pump auto shuts off at around $18-$19 or so and the attendant comes around to force that extra $1-$2 worth of gasoline into my gas tank. By the time I realized what happened I could already smell the strong scent of gasoline.
FYI, in New Jersey it’s illegal to pump your own gas before anybody wonders why I don’t pump my own. On an interesting side note, you will meet a fair number of people from New Jersey that don’t know how to pump gas because they’ve rarely ever had to do it.
