but you've just put 60 quids worth of fuel in the 306 out on the fore court.
The choice between selling someone underage a scratch card and fuel and getting the manager over is generally a good laugh.
I don't know where the law stands with taking fuel after the cashiers refused your money but id say its best to not leave before paying
Flol love it!
Unfortunately driving away without paying is still illegal, even if the shopkeeper is being a tard.
Actually S3 theft act (gives us the offence of making off without payment) says:
Quote:A person who, knowing that payment on the spot for any goods supplied or service done is required or expected from him, dishonestly makes off without having paid as required or expected and with intent to avoid payment of the amount shall be guilty of an offence
So IMO if you've gone in and offered payment and they have refused to accept your payment then there would be no dishonesty and so the offence would not be complete.
Still likely to end up with the police at your door and having to pay eventually, probably not worth the aggro.
