Explain how it was stealing (and I’m serious here).....

The SIGN at the station clearly says the price is $3.299. So if the pump is incorrectly set to $0.329, but the sign clearly says $3.299, then the person who knowingly and deliberately pumps the gas to take advantage of an opportunity to obtain gas at approximately one-tenth of its price is stealing.

Just like my example with the X-Box. If you were buying a $329.95 X-box, (having looked at the price tag to verify the price) but the cashier rang it up for $3.29 it would be stealing to walk out of the store having paid only $3.29 for something you knew was priced at 100 times the amount.

OK,
I understand that....and yes, I’ve spoken up when something was rung up wrong, in both cases.

However, at the gas pump...
I honestly couldn’t tell you what my gas station is charging for gas. But that’s me.
