4. So um, gas prices. They’re bad. The Better Business Bureau sent out an alert last week to consumers who are lured (with good reason) to stations with the lowest price.

If they’re not, go ahead and alert the BBB or Attorney General’s office -- or haggle with the station owner and snag the deal you thought you were getting.
