Gas stations around me (Utah) have all replaced their magstripe with a dual magstripe/chip reader. It drives me nuts though, because you still have to insert your card ALL THE WAY IN as if you're using the mag stripe, and then it decides which one to use.

Are gas stations not a big target for skimmers? Why didn't they design it to avoid the magstripe-skimmers? have two inserts or something, I don't care. But now we're a FULL generation of gas station pumps away from being free'd from skimmers. I just don't understand.

Also, don't get me started on the audio/video ads at the pump these days. They're the worst. I'd rather have to pay inside than have "while you're pumping" ads.
