My dad has been managing service stations for almost 30 years, and I've worked with him on and off for the last ten or so years, and trust me - the margin has never been anywhere near that much.
Typical gas stations make ~90-95% of their income from convenience sales and the service bays.

BTW Justin, I'm referring to the independent gas stations not the corporate owners like EXXON or w/e. They definitely are making around 40-50cents a gallon at this moment. typically yea you are right they make around 5-7cents, but in this situation it's true.
