Fuel Slots

Gas prices have jumped 30 cents a gallon in two weeks. So when I saw the pumps at a local gas station were being replaced I figured the owner of the place was probably distressed to be missing out on the price run.

Then I thought that perhaps the business owner just might be installing the latest generation of gas pumps.

Put the nozzle of the gas hose in your car, pull the lever, and watch the numbers spin just like they do on a slot machine.  Get three cherries and your fill up is free, but get any combination of hard numbers and that's what you're paying for a gallon of gas.

How does $9.99 strike you?
