there is this gas station i despise. i hate it because everyone that works there are rude and inconsiderate bitches aside from a few nice people. another reason i hate them is if you have been there 5943701 times to buy beer or cigarettes beforehand, and they know your face and you dont have your id once THEY WONT SELL THEM TO YOU, even if they know they’ve sold to you before. its sooooo fucking frustrating.

if they want to be sticklers for dumb shit like that, i think i can do the same right back to them… see, at this gas station there are a bunch of things labled like this…

that price reads 99/100ths of a cent. a fraction of a penny!!!

is there some branch of the government i can contact and have a rep or SOMETHING come in the store with me so i can buy a hundred snapples and 20oz of pepsi and water and shit for $1.00?

i know this may seem ridiculous… but they deserve it… trust me.

management can always just kick you out and ask you not to come back. While you might have a point, however small it may be, and something might happen if you contact the right people, I would assume the only thing that would happen is create a new rule that clarifies how they can display the price.

Besides, that first one is a manufacturer lable.

well i am sorry if its a dollar then you can go there right now and they have to give you ten times the amount. there should be a bin ticket aka a white ticket where the drinks are that clearly states the price. if it is not there or updated then there is a problem
