dwood35242 Sophomore Author Birmingham Posts:225 Points:89,760 Joined:Feb 2013	Message Posted: Apr 1, 2013 9:28:28 PM Ignore dwood35242 Report Abuse Just got error messages. Would like E0 prices; also way to show station out of gas instead of having to post a price. Often see old prices listed at the station but they are really out of gas and haven't updated the price - maybe hoping to get customers hoping for cheap gas that will stop in and buy junk food or drinks.....

FossilFool says: Quote "I think there needs to be fields added for cash versus credit price as that trend seems to be making a comeback." end Quote. It's frustrating to see a good price but when you get there it has been listed for cash only... Use the card and pay more. Then you find that just down the street that practice is not used so it would have been cheaper to go elsewhere. [Edited by: gsten at 8/29/2012 2:39:53 PM EST]
