I’m from a US state where we don’t pump our own gas. Since I don’t pump my own gas regularly - only when I’m out of state - I’m not exactly sure when this happened, but all gas pumps seem to play ads now while the pump runs. At least the states adjacent to mine. Like can I not even pump gas in peace? Stop trying to manipulate my purchasing decisions 24/7.
Edit: ok I get it, there’s a mute button. I appreciate the tip, but people are already reporting that it only sometimes works. Knowing there a mute button that sometimes functions doesn’t make me less infuriated
The 2nd button down on the right side of the screen mutes it. I always hit it when pumping gas.
This doesn’t always work. Every gas station I’ve been to in North Carolina appears to have this feature disabled.
We shouldn’t have to OPT OUT of being assaulted. I’m bringing matches.
I’ve seen a couple where someone had torn out the speaker with a pen, car key, etc
A well placed sticker does the trick.
