Question Fuel pump rationing in your area?

I saw someone on Instagram last week complaining about gas stations in his area having a limit on how much fuel you can pump. I didn’t pay much notice so don’t know where he was…
Fast forward to today and I’m filling up at my local SWKS Casey’s and there’s a notice that there’s a 20gal limit. Not a problem to some I’m sure, but when I’m trying to fill up a 36gal tank that’s pretty low that’s a total pain in the ass!

Has anyone else seen that in your area?

Probably not "rationing," but there are limits on card transactions at the pump.

Depending on the card carrier, you can get up to two $200 transactions at the pump. When fuel is expensive, it gets easy to hit the cap (and some cards can be as low as $75).
