fazman · 02-13-2016, 02:58 PM

Its going to be a sucky job to be a gas attendant in NJ this weekend

but gotta love the force full service in the winter time.

My girl jokes the only reason she drives to NJ is so she doesn't have to get out of her car to put gas, I'm just a side benefit! Lol

I go to fill up at Costco Gas in NJ and even if it's freezing cold... I'll still go out and open the gas cap and have my amex card already in the pump ready for the attendant so they can get going faster. I do plan to stop by at my local NY costco tires to get a nitrogen fill top up to 40 psi tomorrow when it's cold out (I have to be out driving anyways).

This weather stinks for everyone. Never saw so many people running into the stores, and back to their cars. My car was reading 3 degrees. I'll take the cold over snow though.

I agree with u. During this winter we had one snow storm for a now, so it's not bad at all !

4:00 AM Sunday morning when t was negative degrees outside I had to get out and bump my own gas in New York, had no choice, not enough to make it to NJ, the goal was to get the tank at least half full, didn't get close, it was to cold. Meanwhile my two friends are laughing inside the car because I'm jumping up and down due to the frigid weather.

I was getting gas Sunday and the pumps were FROZEN! At least my local station had 93 for $2.01

MTTH · 02-17-2016, 09:37 AM

I was In NJ Monday night and 93 was $2.21.

I always make my mark... I have all the NJ Costco Gas mapped and I know my mpg and distance to where I want to be. I almost always roll into the gas with a range of less than 5 miles on my car

sometimes it's just ---

I also bring some gas cans with me to bring back to NY

I did fill up on Sunday and did feel for those guys. I usually tip them when it's that cold out.

Not having to pump your own gas at near 0 degree in NJ is a privilege and state comfort. Tip the guy as a act of kindness for cup of coffe or tea. They'll appreciated...
