dude if you mark up your gas just a few cents, a: you are the highest one on the street and people bitch about the penny difference if they come in at all; b: you don't make any profit, its actually costing you money to pump gas; and c:90% of your sales will be on plastic charge cards which take 3% on the dollar in this day and age. gas being 4 dollars a gallon means you need some other means of income. be it a convienence store or a repair shop, you can't make a living selling gas, you lose your life./rant
