Generally, I prefer self-serve gas stations, but gee was I glad I opted to stop by this Sunoco just off Needham Street on this night of nights.
My goal - to buy a couple of gallons before I returned my rental in order to avoid getting severely overcharged for gas.
What happened - I must have seemed the stupidest driver! I had absolutely no idea where the release was to unlatch the gas tank cover, so the fellow waiting to serve me had to reach over and pull. He was terrific. If he was at all impatient or annoyed, I had no inkling whatsoever.
In the meantime, I learned that you don't buy by the gallon, but by specifying a dollar amount.
$6 was plenty for my needs. Thanks! read more
