    People run out of gas for numerous reasons other than financial: What about not noticing your light was on- or not being able to stop between shuffling kids to their appts. It happens people! Perhaps these woman pushed their limits on "Empty" as their car barely crawled to die outside the station.... Maybe she was just helping them so they could get up to the pump... Nevertheless, it was a kind gesture on her part:)

    Um excuse me, she didn't even need to help out, but she did. The car was actually stranded and she stopped by to offer help. She left and got gas for them and brought it back. You can't bring back a full tank of gas now can you?? Hmmm....

    That was nice of her! Seriously though, to expect her to fill up that SUV is ignorant!! If those people can not afford that gas on their gas guzzler they should have not even hit the road!! It was nice of Jen to fill up the red can & that was enough! She should not have been expected to fill up the tank!!! She even poured it in for pete's sake!!
