      Don't forget about lottery and cigarettes. That's the main cash cow for most gas stations. Overall gas, stations make a substantial amount of money at the end of the day even though their profit is pennies on the dollar. A buddy of mine that works in the refinary says that they profit about $3 for every barrel of oil that they process (give or take depending on the price of oil). And even though it does not seem like a lot of money, in the grand scale of things the refinary makes a small fortune. They don't make any money off of the higher gas prices but they surely get theirs.

        My favorite pop ice (li hing mui flavor) has a big warning on the back that it contains something known to cause cancer in lab rats :P

        Its still the bomb, I'll probably get skin cancer before ice cream cancer anyway.
