Hypothesis: Some gas stations' pumps are not reflecting the amounts of gas you put into your tank. So, a call to action is requested.
To confirm or negate this hyporthesis, all of San Diego County residents are challenged to check each pump used to make sure you're getting what you pay for by taking the time to protect yourself and stop any potential rip-offs. Whichever grade you are using, put EXACTLY 10 GALLONS in your tank and look at the dollar amount. If the dollar amount is not EXACTLY 10 times the price of the fuel you have chosen, then the pump is rigged.
Wherever you pump gas, please check the 10 gallon price. If you do find a station that is cheating, please do the following: 1) Keep your receipt; 2) Note the pump number; 3) Note the grade of fuel; and 4) Note the time of day and date. IF you have a cell phone, take a photo of the pump. 5) Note the name of the station and the location.
Action: 1) File an on-line complaint so we can notify the authorities.
I hope this practice isn't widespread. But, if we're trying to save money and stop price gauging, then let's get proactive in ways we can gather evidence and get the rip-off stopped.
