I this area, it was in the mid 20 cents as I remember. All stations gave out drinking glass'es to attract business. Most stations as well as super markets gave out either green or blue stamps you could collect and then go to redemption centers and get all kinds of stuff.

Many stations also checked your oil, water and tires with a fill up. A few stations also did a quick vacuum job on the floor rugs with a fill up.

Now, I have to pre pay, pump myself, go inside and pay someone who is always on the cell phone talking in some non understandable
language with never a smile or thanks.

And Peppermint life savers at the station were a knuckle a pack. Ah......for those days again !!!!!!!!!
