Some people like self serve petrol stations like this one we saw in Christchurch last December as they are a bit cheaper than the average ones around the country. A new one has opened here in Greymouth in the last month that is self serve too and apart from the small difference in price, people are wondering why as we already have 5 petrol stations in town as it is. Most people I've talked to about it are wishing that perhaps a cheaper supermarket or a kmart could've been built there.

...all gas in self serve here!
Nice shot. In the Netherlands and in my hometown we also have more and more self-service stations.
Gas is self serve here too.
I prefer to use my Woolworths points in supermarket petrol station
We barely have any self serve petrol stations in India.
Only one full service gas station here, the other three are self serve.
I agree, I'd rather have a cheap supermarket than another petrol station, self serve or otherwise.
6 stations and not enough groceries... hmm, strange priorities.I never saw a self-serve gas station here.
It must be a balance between cost for the station and salaries for personal that defines the outcome.
That's a very modern looking station.
Bei uns in Deutschland gibt es immer mehr Selbstbedienungstankstellen. Kein Personal - keine Kosten, könnte ich mir denken.
Nice clean look to the station. I think here in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA there is only one station that has an option to pump gas for you and you pay dearly for that extra service. Some of the stations have a protocol where they will send a clerk out to pump the gas for you at no extra charge.
That's a clean-looking petrol station. Full serve disappeared in CA a long time ago, with the promise of lower gas prices for all. Now we all have to pump our own gas and we have the highest prices in the USA!
We have to pump our own gas here unless you drive far away to a smaller town. Even then it's likely self-serve. We have few gas stations in my city but quite a lot of grocery stores.
Everything looks so clean there.

It was only recently we could pump our own gas in Oregon. It doesn't cost less, so I don't. I know how, being from California where you do pump yourself. Besides, where I go, they pump it, wash my windows, give me a bottle of cold water, and a coupon for a free coffee or soda in the mini-market!
