We still get our windows washed, oil checked and the air in our tires checked here in Oregon. We are not allowed to pump our own gas :0) I might add that our gas does not cost any more than the rest of the west coast. I filled today for 2.57. I do really miss those green stamps :0) Last fall in California Diesel was over 3.00 dollars per gal. I hate pumping my own gas I always manage to get gas on my foot so I get to smell it all day.

No, but I remember my parents talking about it.
