      This is actually why I got a Costco membership. 90% of gas stations in my city have a TV screen now and fuck that noise.

        Only sometimes. I’ve seen the mute button be disabled on numerous machines. Worth knowing and trying when the screen is blaring ads at you, but my success rate has been low in muting them.

          Yeah, and it varies by station. I push all the buttons. Some times one works, some times not.
