I pull up to pumps and THEN I go into store to pay for my gas for them to turn pump on.
Pumps don't work unless you use a credit card or GO INSIDE and pay for it.
So YUP, my coach is parked in front of a pump while I go in to pay for my gas at that pump. And NOPE I can't move out of the way for you. :WI know that you are just playing games here, so stop.
No one has suggested that you cannot go inside to pay for your fuel while you are parked at the pump. But there is NO reason to go inside, shop for supplies, get/eat lunch at the attached fastfood joint inside, pay for your fuel, and THEN come out to pump your fuel, all while your vehicle sits there in front of the pump.
We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

Paying in advance still allows the use of debit or credit cards at the pump. Cash payments must be in advance which is a policy at most stations in the US also.

BC is pay in advance. Everywhere. Nuisance but that is the law. Stops drive offs. Send the DW inside with the card
How can a station get "drive-aways" if it's pumps require credit cards or debit cards to be used at the pump in order to get the pump to operate?
What am I missing?

Grant De Patie, 24 yo, was working at a gas station in '05 when a teenager tried to get away without paying for $12 in gas. The teen dragged Grant under his car for about 5 miles and killed him. It took years but after pressure led by his father, eventually a law called Grant's law was brought in requiring prepayment.

There are a lot of gas stations in Alberta and BC that state right at the pump "Pay In Advance" with no card option at the pump.
