gas station
There are some stations that have their pumps rigged so that the first pull of the trigger can just blow air and then start pumping gas and most people never notice. I heard someone tellin me about it one day and got to thinking there have been a couple of local pumps that have done that...I keep an eye on the rate of the gallons pumped and money pumped...or whatever you wanna call it.

Haven't you ever watched "Office Space", its very similar to the scheme they came up with. Taking away fractions of a fraction of a penny over time will start to add up to a lot of money.
