So there is a completely unattended gas station? With no employees whatsoever? Is that even legal? Sounds like a huge safety hazard.
My perspective on this might differ somewhat because I am not a car owner and rarely ever drive. But, no I wouldn't head right out there to get gas.
I would probably do more for malfunctioning coke machine than free gas. Malfunctioning vending machines are awesome and very, very rare. Well, rare when they're in your favor.
It's because they are doing the same thing they always do and have no affect on whether or not they're charged the sign price or the .33 cents. They put their credit card in, they pump the gas, they fill their tank, they pay their credit card bill. It's a malfunction and they're not really thinking about it any other way, that's my assessment, anyway.
I also think the volatile nature of gas prices means people accept whatever that price is, no matter how big or small, basically.
To me, this isn't morally wrong, but maybe legally it is.
