this is a classic!

so...my brother and i went into town earlier this afternoon to pick up some groceries. we drove past a gas station, and my brother was like wtf? turns out some lady had just finished pumping gas, and had taken off with the nozzle still in the tank. while driving off the nozzle got disconnected from the pump, and was hanging on the car. after pulling out of the parking lot she finally realizes there's something hanging on her car, and returns it to its rightful place.

it was halarious! i had to stop and take a picture.

My area is between $3.05 & $3.23. A bunch of stations just jumped $.10 since yesterday so I suspect it'll be more like 3.15 - 3.35 by Monday and will be worse for the extended weekend next week.

Disadvantage of self-service stations, isn't it?
