Gas pumps 1/10 of gal. off from what debit reciept says I should be getting?

Question

at this store I stopped to get gas at I payed with a debit card the reciepts tell you how many gallons you are supposed to get,but after pumping my gas I noticed the pump said I actually got one-tenth of a gallon less than my reciept said I should have gotten. Is this illegal? Or does it matter? Should the store be reported?

Answer 1

The receipt may just be rounding up.  Next time you are there check that the listed price is correct for the amount of gas you get, but I suspect it will be.  Beyond that check, just forget about it this is clearly a mistake.

Answer 2

contact police and see what they say  

Answer 3

yeah, that doesn't sound right to me either... your receipt should reflect the same numbers as the pump. I would report them.  It may seem like a little amount, but collectively it adds up.

Answer 4

you probably were charged a little extra for using a debit card because it costs the store every time somebody uses a debit or credit card for gas to transfer the money and yes if this is the case it is legal.
