Yeah, this actually isn't that funny for people in SLC, who have to pay... well, less now, gas went down to $3.15 this weekend. However, it is a LITTLE funny. Here's what happened.
Now, what I want to know is: How did the attendant NOT realize that his pumps weren't charging the right amounts? To fill up most cars these days cost at LEAST $40. However, people were going out with receipts of $10! After the first ten people or so, I would have shut things down. And with THAT many people going to that particular gas station all at once... you have to just WONDER and QUESTION and DO SOMETHING!!!
Maybe this is just another of those common sense things that people seem to be ignoring recently. To one, it seems blatantly OBVIOUS! To another, it seems... "Sorta funny...".
I'm glad gas prices have dropped. Now if only this little fairy tale could happen everywhere. And even include a happily ever after for the people.
I wonder... did the people get tracked down and fined for the gas they were undercharged for?

Its so weird that just a little over a month ago we were paying $3.15 you say, and now its as low as $1.45. Wow! I guess we can't expect this for too long.
For a minute though, I thought you wrote this recently. I was going to say, are they crazy why are they stopping there when it says $3.43. It reminds me of something that happened down at draper, the gas then was at $4 something and the gas station announced it down by a dollar, people starting calling up everyone they knew to go fill up their tanks there. Haha. I would have too.
^my thoughts exactly, I started reading this before I checked the date and was very confused. but it is awesome how low gas has dropped! I saw 1.59 the other day which was crazy though I have yet to see the day when gas in 39 cents, although who knows maybe 1.59 will seem crazy in a few months... but I doubt it.
