I owned a Texaco station in Pompano Beach FL at that time and I could pump my monthly allotment in 3 days if I’d have let it happen. I limited to 5 gallons per vehicle no gas cans and was open 6:30AM - 9:00AM closed until 3PM opened at 3PM- 7:00PM

That’s what these people that are gasoline vendors need to do now just like one pkg of toilet paper per customer.

Too many scared panic ridden people in this world period.
