There is a gas station near my apartment that has the 89 octane pumps set at .285 instead of 2.85. My neighbor just told us about it about an hour ago. My brother and I just filled up for about $4.00! LOL~Just got gas for 28.5 cents a gallon!

DANG! And I thought maybe this was going to be about one of those "metric" pumps they tried back in the 70's with disastrous results.... almost worth the ride over there to gas up! 
Unfortunately I'm quite certain this matter has already been addressed.

I've heard about the automatic pumps accidentally being set with the decimal point in the wrong place. Seems like an expensive promotion to me -- gas for 10% of the regular price? I imagine it's probably an error and somebody's gonna be in big trouble when the owner finds out.

When i went up there, there was no line. I took a couple pictures of the gas station when I was waiting at the red light across the street.
It was a decimal point set wrong just as Duck pointed out.
