“I have no problem with Valero gas station, I fill up here all the time.the only issue I have is about the employee who was working last night during the 10 o’clock hour.I was trying to buy some sunflower seeds for my softball tournament this weekend and he charged me $2.99 for the Frito lay roasted and salted seeds. The smaller 13/4 oz bag.I purchased six smaller bags, and two other items that were $4.99 eachMy total was $27 and some change.I had an honest, surprised, look on my face, because I was genuinely shocked that he was charging me that much for a small bag of seeds. Now I know everything’s been getting more expensive, and I know for a fact that Frito Lay has raised their prices, but there is no way on gods green earth that that small bag was $2.99.And I was trying to explain to him that that was way too expensive and that it wasn’t the right price.So I told him to take them off and I would only gonna get the other items, but instead, he did the opposite and charged me for the seeds which was $17 alone.I’m still shocked, this rating is more to ensure they price things correctly, and that employees know the prices of these items.$2.99 I still can’t believe it.”
