Strike A Victory For The Big Oil Companies
On Feb 1 2008 all Gas sold in B.C. must be prepaid.
Since Jan 2007 Gas bought at the pumps during the hours of 10 pm - 6 am had to be pre paid.

I could see that to protect late night workers, but 24/7????
Big Oil Companies call the shots in B.C.

I don't get it....you mean you have to pay for the gas before it's pumped?

I don't see what the problem is. You don't want to walk into the store?

It's already that way in the small town I live in. Too many people were driving off without paying. Anyone paying cash has to pay before pumping. Otherwise, use a credit or debit card at the pump.

How is it received there?
I would have thought that Oil Companies couldn't get away with this?

Ah Prax, wrong analogy unless that same grocery store asks you to lay a fifty dollar bill on the counter before you even shop.
