Wow that is cheap.

Back is the olden days when I was first driving, gas was 25 cents per gallon. With inflation that equals $1.42 now. I do remember gas war prices of 18 cents a gallon that is $1.02 now.

The only difference is I got full service. The attendant filled up the car, washed my windshield, checked the oil and tire pressures and asked about my family.

That, and I could dig in the couch cushions and find enough money for a gallon which got me 32 miles.
