Once there will be no more digits to use for displaying price per gallon they will be forced to display price per liter as it still could fit

    In the 70’s when gas broke $1.00 per gallon and most pumps couldn’t handle it, they just set the pumps to half the price and charged double that when you went in to pay. Pump would say $5 and you paid $10. That would be a lot harder today since rarely are people paying inside.

      They will change the advertised price to quarts, it’s much easier for the and it will mess with people because prices will look 4 times lower but it is 4 times less liquid.
