Ive seen that….a few years ago, station near me maxed out at $50. Gas was w.ut or so at the time. …
However, I’ve predicted (as have many others) climate change lockdowns and rationing of gasoline and electricity in order to save the planet….
I had the pump cut off (local JD’s) recently when I reached $75. I asked the gal inside what was up. She did not know and another guy in the store said he has heard that happening a few times recently but didn’t know why as well.
Out of curiosity, to see if it was my bank, I went to another station and topped off the last 3 or 4 gallons with no issue.
The station does a “pending” charge on your card to make sure you don’t overdraft or go over your credit limit. Or use a prepaid card with $2.00 on it.
If you charge/debit inside the store then you can have them put in any pending charge you want.
Most of the stations around me were at $50. Not anymore.
total you can get at that price is 35 gallons.....so, we have several gas cans so when we use our "reward" its for the full 35 gallons....
so they better not limit us ...
