Ha ha. NJ resident here. I love not having to pump gas![/quote]

Op here, and I didn't realize this was still a thing in Jersey. As much as business people like to be progressive, sometimes reverting to how things were can be groundbreaking. In wealthier areas here, this would be a hit. People pay for convenience. [/quote]

It’s not just a thing for wealthier areas, t’s literally a law state-wide in NJ that you cannot pump your own gas- full stop.

I personally find it annoying and draconian but sounds like it would be a win for you.[/quote]

I never understood why it was a law in NJ. In Maryland, back in the 80s, certain lanes were full-service, while the others were self-service. That would be a good option for those who prefer not to have someone else pump. [/quote]

The full service and you can't pump your own gas laws = forced socialism. 
In all others states there used to be full service for an extra 10-20 cents a gallon (which got your tires checked, windshield washed, and oil checked.) In the really olden days, there'd be a team of guys come out to do all that really fast. In the mom and pop stations, it was usually Jr. or Pop that had to do it all. :D

There are a very few stations that still have full service pumps. [/quote]
