geez, it doesn't bother probably about 7,800,000 people here, so I fail to see the HUGE issue you're making it out to be.

listen, go to PA, pay more per gallon and waste time travelling there. who cares. you're not going to accomplish anything by whining about it here.

12 pages appear to say differently.

This is one of those threads that I have seen the "Subject", and then just passed it by...
Now I see why.

Give me a break. I didn't do this to get a rise out of people...I just found it funny that it did. It was an honest topic.

also miss the cheap food prices. I don't know why FL is importing oranges from CA. The FL ones cost about $2.95 a bag and the CA ones are $4.95. Everything else is very high too. I looked at the Shop Rite circular online I couldn't believe that prices haven't changed in 3 years at least for some things. Oh well this is getting off thread.

Our gas is cheaper than in NY where you do pump your own. I think there's more important things to worry about. If you want to get outraged ask why we charge people to go on the beach in NJ. Having someone pump our gas is minor. "Jersey Girls don't pump gas" unless they have to leave the state

it's because the one from CA are better eating oranges, the one here in FLA are better for juice

this is how we do it here, so therefore go to alabama and pump your own gas

Don't really understand the problem. As my title stated "low prices and clean hands". I guess you could check your oil and tires since that seems to have gone away as a service..

One of the guys at the freehold rt 9 Valerio cleaned my windshield without being asked..Thanks Valerio..

It always seems to take me longer when I travel out of state, to pump my own gas... you have to walk up to the mini mart, give the guy your money, go back outside, pump the gas, then if there's any change involved, you have to walk back to the store.

Those Middle Eastern guys get you in and out in a few minutes.
