You missed the part where it asks if you want a receipt, then it doesn't print and says the cashier has it.
"Hey, gas pump neighbor! It's so cheap! I'll pay for your gas!" 😂😅
Yes its hilarious to hear americans go on about the price of gas. If they only knew in europe we pay twice as much😂
I was in the US for 3 months last year and what really annoyed me about the gas stations is that when paying by credit card at the pump, it would often ask for my zip code. with my friends german credit card, no problem, he entered his 5 digit zip code and all good. with my swiss credit card it's a big problem, because our zip codes are only 4 digits, but those god damn gas pumps only accept 5 digit zip codes.... I always had to find a gas station with a cashier and pay with them first.
In other words, no big deal.
@@1972Ray well, can be quite annoying if you have to stop at 5 gas stations because the machine is too stupid to understand that there are places in the world where zip codes are not 5 digits long.
Just make up a zip code ?
@@daboss2138 doesn't work, zip code has to match the credit card's billing address
@@theengineer4050 ooh okay
I think gas stations without personal are quit rare in Germany. In Austria we have some Gasstations without personal, only automats, so you have to put your bank card at first, in some cases, you have to say how much you € want to fuel in, and then you can tank yourself
We have some of those as well, usually for the night when the personell is off shift. Fully automated ones are rare though.
Those are not unmanned stations. In the US you have to pay first, even when there are employees in the station. And when you want to pay cash, you'll have to inside, tell them "I want $50 on pump 4" and pay there and then. Then you can pump. And if you misjudged and don't use it all, you have to go back in to get the rest of your money back.
So I guess -> Use your card. Much easier. But I feel the US is missing a trick here. In Germany you always go inside to pay. That's where they can also offer you a Snack, a coffee and maybe a pack of gum on top. Surprised the US is missing out on the opportunity for potential sales, very out of character 😀
I can only imagine having the pumps active before you pay, would lead to so much theft, that they decided against it.
@@morbvsclz German gas stations, if not directly owned by the big oil companies just earn 1-2 ct (eurocent) per liter. So 30 liters for car would make just 0,30€. But as retail margins are a lot higher, I'd say 30%, to be very typical in germany, but as gas stations have very high prices, we should rather calculate with 40% a gas station can make the double profit from a customer, if the customer just boughts a choculate bar for a Euro.
The glasses are a great German disguise 😂😅!! Love it ❤❤!!
Ähm, we have the windowcleaningstuff too (at every gasstation) and also the carwashoption (not on every gasstation, but allways some in the near)
At least we have them in Austria (similar neighborcountry) and I'm pretty sure, Germany too.
Ja isso
Jup
Und österreichische und deutsche Tankstellen sind jetzt nicht viel anders, kann ich bestätigen, als jemand der in beiden Ländern gelebt hat
@@David_Granger ja isso
Aber die preise sind besser in den US
i think the point he was making was about it trying to upsell you. Some show advertisements too.
Wichtig zu erklären, dass Österreich n ähnliches Nachbarland ist. Schließlich gucken ja auch Amerikaner zu
du kannst sport schauen wenn du pumpen hahaha
That's my favorite part too!!
Hilarious 😂😂😂👍👍👍
Having to pay before pumping says a lot about the society
alot about AMERICAN society, i have never paid before pumping gas and i have pumped gas in atleast 5 countries
This system also exists in Denmark at self-service gas stations and Denmark is a peaceful society.
However, at staffed petrol stations you pay after filling up.
@@Lucas-jf5zu America's so messed up but everyone keeps doing UA-cam comparisons with the US, and no other countries. It's like an obsession.
Dieter 😋...sadly that name slowly dies out
I heard that they charge you extra out of nowhere if you choose the car wash option at the gas pump.
Not sure what you mean, out of no where? You choose that option, they charge you for it. Just like everything in real life.
@@1972Ray I meant that they charge you MORE for that the car wash is worth if you choose that option from the gas station terminal.
The question for the tip is missing
Wouldn't the correct German at the end be "Du kannst Sport anschauen, wenn du pumpst?
@@donaldothomoson Good thing I'm doing my German lessons for free in Duolingo! 😂😂😂😂
...waehrend du zapfst.
The German is probably wrong on purpose.
@@ulrichklein9473 während
It would probably be "Du kannst Sport schauen während du tankst" probably. Depends on the region tho. Most of his german is wrong, i think he's just a learner.
91 Octane in a modern car holyyyy shit
Wait till he goes to bucees
You think that's expensive go to California or Canada. I was planing a trip back up here to Alaska and was checking fuel in Central and Western Canada....it comes out to over $6 gallon i thought $4 gallon (diesel) was expensive when i moved up here but seeing gas for that much wow
he thought the gallon prices would be for a liter which is about 0.26 gallons.
@Jano1998 anytime I'm in Canada I just figure 3.78 x pump price and you get the per gallon price.
If you have to prepay, how do you know the exact amount of fuel to top of the fuel tank?
At the German automatons you first enter how much is the max you want to pay. If a full tank is below that you are only charged what you pumped.
Since credit cards are the main payment method in the US. First it charges you the amount you enter. Say $30. Then you fill it up and it stops by $24. Then on your credit card statement it'll say you paid $30 then $24 and then a refund of $30.
@@Arkiasis Didn't know that! Sounds like a good system. Thank you for the answer.
@@vorrnth8734 Didn't know that, thank you!
In Belgium, you have to "prepay" as well. By entering your PIN, you pre-authorise payment of the amount that you then decide to fill in. It's quite simple really.
Y'know,as a European,i was confused when i went to USA and i had to pay before pumping the gas.
