Whereas, if you are paying by credit card, and it stops on 23.87, it's okay - they don't have to dig 13 cents change out, it's on the credit card!
    Silly me!

    Robin and Rescue452 you have me laughing!! I guess that would be a bit of a surprise and maybe even a little scary!

    You know Rachel I never thought of that. I guess I looked too dumb to be pulling off a robbery!

    Actually I was able to get Regular for $2.99 this morning. Traveling to my daughter's in Maryland and Delaware I saw regular as high as $3.13 and you have to pump your own in those states. I guess this is the one plus of living in New Jersey!

    LOL! Here I guess it is illigal to pump your own gas. In Nevada, there are no full service stations so it took some getting used to. Watching the attendants around here fiddle with my picky gas door is amusing though
