I never saw such thing in canada. But let me guess, you see ads but the gas price is not any cheaper than other gas stations without it?

Ads for gambling should be prohibited, just like those for tobacco and alcohol.

You must have a really small tank. Last time I filled up (less than a week) it was over 120€ (50 liters)
An air can turned upside down will freeze and destroy a speaker cone while leaving zero evidence.
You can afford canned air in this economy?
Dollar Tree is more expensive per oz than MicroCenter, but having a little can of air around is pretty damn handy, and not a huge investment...
And the only chance I get to go to Microcenter is when I go to work, since it's near my office, but I've been WFH since covid and it's like an hour and a half from here.
I actually use a rechargeable air blower at home because it’s so much cheaper lol.
Video evidence?
Yea definitely wear a hat and stuff.
Should my license plate wear a hat too?
No, that’s where you put the fake mustache.
…but really though, just do what cops do and tuck a dried leaf in the plate holder to partially obscure it with plausible deniability.
and hope that someone else in the state has the exact same car model/color with plates that match the part of the plate that your leaf didn't obscure.
Police can get away with it because almost all police cars are identical.
great idea!
that's what I do to get past the Flockness where they can see the scratches, stickers and mud on your car to identify you.
hope you have your car's bluetooth and telemetry turned off.
but wait, even if you manage that without bricking your car there's always your phone.
Park next door?
Or walk, if that's an option.
You could also stay to the unlit parts of the lot and practice your airsoft aim at the screens.
I've started blasting death metal as load as possible when this happens. If my ears are going to be assaulted I'll just double down with the noise i want to hear. Luckily the pump i go to has never done this so i try and go there everytime.
they are bitching about prices that are still 75% or so of eu prices
I don't know if it's a national app or what but we have ads around here for a gambling app named "JackPocket" and I can't help but wonder how much the board was giggling about that name when they agreed on it.
They... they have ads in the gas pumps? Do you have to watch the ads before you are allowed to pump?
It's during.
I have legit punched the screens, and pressed all the buttons so hard in, I'm suprised nothing broke.
When it's obvious from the start you can just drive to a different station (for now), but when it sneaks up on me is when I get angry.
No because then you might realize what’s about to happen and go somewhere else. They wait until you start dispensing so you’re a captive audience, then they blast ads.
Some local hero around here has been stabbing ball point pens into the speakers on them.
Theyre smart to that already, most of the ad pumps I've run into have speakers hidden inside the housing that you can't access anymore, and the "bottom left button on the screen mutes the ad" trick is disabled.
At this stage I just boycott those stations, leave a 2 star review on Google and deal with paying an extra 15c a gallon a couple blocks away.

And font forget!!! Your 75 dollars go to an Arab that works with isrealis to kill other Arab. Oh and they fuck little kids....
"Congratulations, you live in a society."
Still one of the best quotes from the Satisfactory AI.
I have yet to encounter a gas station pump that displays ads that hasn't been wholly vandalized to the point of non-functionality. I think I'd have to find a gas station being built the day they install the pumps to actually see them working. And then I would break them myself.
There are a couple of American Express cards that give you 3% cash back on Gas (including one with a low annual fee, that also gives 6% back on groceries up to the first $6000 spent per year).
That helps.
There's a gas station chain near me that doesn't play ads, usually has the best prices, and gives 10c off per gallon if you use their app linked to a checking account...that helps, too.
I miss the days when that was the better deal...
