CNN had a story this morning about a petrolium company in Texas that has been scamming consumers. They had fixed the gallon measure amount to short customers by about 1/4 or so of a gallon for each "gallon" pumped. What finally got them was that customers started complaining that the amount pumped didn't match the size of their gas tanks.
So, they said the best thing we can do to avoid this is to know your gas tank size and pay attention to how much you are using (calculate the MPG's) and taking to fill it. If one company did this, others could be doing it too.
(One small consolation: the offending company will be bankrupted with fines:)
Happy Holidays!

Here in Utah many gas stations are posting the "cash" price and then when you swipe your credit card raising the price as much as 50 cents! That's why I buy gas at Costco!
