  I don't know if they're illegal or not.  Maybe the mom & pop stores 
around here don't want to spend the money on newer pumps that will 
accept credit cards.  Not that I would blame them, if they do enough 
business now why bother?
 
  It's not a big deal, I'm just surprised store owners aren't more 
tempted by the thought of selling gas 24 hours a day without paying an 
attendant.
