You know what really grinds my gears ATOT? Gas stations that list "cash prices" on their billboards. As if anyone can read the term "cash" from a far distance, let alone the $0.10 difference is an obvious ploy to be a difference between regular and mid-grade and for you to not notice because your assumption is you always fill up with regular, hence you have the cheapest of 3 types of gasoline (Regular, Midgrade, and Premium). Whatever the case, I know the places to avoid, I've never been screwed aside from pulling into a place and having to go to a different place - but I'm damn sure plenty of others have been screwed plenty. Especially if they do stuff like pay with a debit card. Honestly, I haven't carried the amount of cash to fill up my car in years. I keep a $10 in the glove box in case of an emergency (empty tank or something).
Most of the stores around me that do it simply say "Credit $x.xx Cash $x.xx"... First off, what the fuck is debit? Last I checked, a debit card would constitute as cash, but apparently not!
Example, but not quite on par with what I see. Where I live it's much more deceptive. Much smaller writing.
