RE: now winter relief


I know when I 'lived in New Jersey it was all full serve- and right next
door in Pennsylvania it was your basic self-serve.  Gas is PA was more
expensive than in NJ.  People claimed this was because of the insurance
costs in NJ were cheaper for the station owners- since there weren't a lot
of clueless public pumping the gas.  Not sure, but I certainly waited until
I was back in NJ to get gas since it was cheaper and someone else did the
work!

You're right, Marilyn...we pump our own gas here and prices have done
nothing but go up.  Plus, if a station does have "full" service
(that's  laugh) the price for that gas is even higher.
