You think the oil companies would refund you if they accidentally put the decimal point in the other place and charged you $35.00 a gallon? Doubt it. You'd probably waste 20 hours of your time getting bounced around through voice mail hell and then have to pursue a legal fight to fix it.

Sad, but that's where we are today.

And yes, if it was clearly just a small station owned by an independent operator, my take on it would be different.
Does it really matter whom you are stealing from?
