When was the last time you stopped for gas and did not fill it up?
This morning, I saw some kids pooling their money so they could put 5 bucks in the tank.
Nothing wrong with that…I’ve been there. Hell, when I was their age I can remember putting 1 or 2 dollars in…even 50 or 75 cents. I can also remember, on several occasions, stealing a can of someone’s “lawn mower” gas to get by, but I always left the can in their front or back yard. We would usually park on another street, and slink in from the rear.
I can tell you this…a can of gas is heavy when your running with it.

And boy – $5 isn’t going to get you very far these days…
Kinda slams into the legs, too…
Some gas stations here cut you off at $75 whether your tank is full or not. And yes, frighteningly enough, on occasion, I have had to spend more than that to get a full tank.
DogsDontPurr is correct. A lot of the gas stations here in my neck of the woods cut you off at $75.00, which barely makes it enough to fill up my 27 gallon tank. Dang, my carbon footprint is huge….I feel like chopping down a couple trees now.
