Just came from Portland. Self-serve would help your predicament. The mandatory attendant adds at least a dime to the cost of each gallon in Oregon.

Not really...throughout this latest price boost, we've had close to the lowest prices in the country.

Mind you, I don't have a problem with self-serve being available...it just seems not to be a significant money-saver for the consumer.

Taxes are a much bigger component of fuel prices than attendant labor cost.

Funny how those never seem to get suspended in the face of fuel price "crises."
