I love it, and now that you’ve said that I am going to be keeping mental notes to see if I have such an option. Fortunately, buying gasoline is a pretty infrequent thing for me.
I would also love to know where that habit lands you in the greater population’s percentiles when it comes to avoiding advertising. I assume most people reading our comments are already the 1% because it’s Lemmy, lol. (my usual is Linux + LibreWolf + ublock origin at both home and work)
If I were you, I would find who owns that gas station. Then hand write an actual physical letter and mail it to them, explaining why you only get gas at their station. That could make enough impression that when that station’s owner is tempted to put in ads, they’ll remember you. Maybe that will be enough to get them to not follow the crowd and to keep their pumps ad-free.
I go out of my way to get my all of my gas from one specific station that doesn’t have advertisements on their pumps.
