That info was on the news here a short time ago. It amazes me how lax people are. I have always locked my car doors when fueling.Greybeard wrote:Just posted this link on another thread. Possibly even more applicable on this one.

I like to grocery shop sometimes (alright, Mrs TX likes a break now and then) and women ALWAYS leave their purses wide open and unattended in the carts.
I see women walking too and from their cars with the heads down, hands full.
WAKE UP!

No offense, but you really need to move or find another place to get gas.Boma wrote:I'm 24 and am less experienced than most people here, but I've been approached by so many people at gas stations.
People wanting to sell me 20 dollar fake cologne, Rap CDs (guy ended up being ok), or to ask me to me to donate my money to some charity or something.
Re: Becareful at Gas Stations
I'm financially stuck where I am, even though I just finished my Master's Degree. I'm now working full time and gaining experience so I can move out of "where I live." Oh yeah the Rankin Rd. Gas stations (in Houston) consistently have the best gas prices in my area.Geister wrote:No offense, but you really need to move or find another place to get gas.Boma wrote:I'm 24 and am less experienced than most people here, but I've been approached by so many people at gas stations.
