Add Another to the List 2.0

This is a new list. The old list consists of businesses to which, for good reasons, I will not be returning.
This new list is places to which I will be returning, indeed to which I must return. It's the list of gas stations in Florida that accept my credit card.
It's a short and exclusive list. Until recently Wawa was the only name on the roster. But since coming back this year, I've been able to add Marathon and Seven-Eleven.

Any place that has sufficient self checkouts...

These are stations at which I can self checkout using my card at the pump. Most places don't accept my card at the pump.

You should always use cash at a gas station. They are notorious for those credit card scanner scams.

I'm no good at estimating exactly how much it will take to fill the tank

They give change.
Not trying to be a smart ass, and maybe it isn't an issue there. It is supposedly in my area. I have a PHEV, so I go to a gas station only to prepare for a long trip and always have cash to pay.

I pay cash when I'm at home,where they make it easy. I pump my gas, then go inside and pay. I don't have to do the mental arithmatic in advance or go inside and line up a second time to get my change.
Now, in Florida, I've found four stations that trust me enough to accept my credit card.

Most stations take Apple pay or tap to pay. I haven't physically used my credit card at a pump in well over a year...

Filled up at WaWa before heading home. I had to stop twice more before I got to Windsor.
Weigel's and Meijer both accepted my credit card

Not so many this year. I think the low Canadian Dollar plus the skyrocketing cost of travel health insurance kept a lot of them at home.

I didn't think of that.
One of my relative's neighbors in Florida were from Canada and they sold their place a couple years ago.
They were nice.
