Fuel

As i was driving home yesterday coming from Houston, my fuel light turned on in my truck. I asked my wife to pull up her fuel price app. on her i phone to check on who's got the lowest price along the way. $3.49 was the cheapest and closest we could get to at Diamond shamrock station in Boerne TX. As i placed the fuel nozzle in the filler neck i was looking at the fuel price on the pump and it just doesn't seem right. I went ahead and started pumping anyway but as the fuel went in my tank the price doesn't seem to add up to it's advertised price per gallon. Again, i kept on going until it was full thingking there was something wrong with the digital screen on the fuel pump station. I went ahead and got a print out of my receipt and that confirms the error. The advertised price was $3.49/gal but whoever programmed the pumps programmed it to 0.349/gal. Guess what, i got 17 gallons of fuel for 34 cents a gal with a whopping total of a little over $6.00 to fill my tank. My wife informed the manager and i saw all the blood rush out off his face as he looked at the screen. He was peeed off and said thank you for letting them know and told us we could go and enjoy the cheap fuel. Happy 4th of July!!!
 

Wow, talk about your good flashbacks! What a great 4th of July gift! Somehow I doubt the Manager whould have been so generous had it been us filling our Motorhome at that price, but it sure would have been a break to get 70 gallons of gas for only 34 cents a gallon!
 
I wonder how many people got the limited time reduced price.

Good on you guys for telling him.
 

why can't that ever happen to me. I have 8 bucks in my pocket and would love a full tank of gas.
