What’s the deal with Stamford gas stations and attendants? No other town in CT has attendants but all the stations I’ve been to in Stamford seem to have them. Is this just specific to Stamford?

Yeah the Gulf on hope and the one up on high ridge road (don’t remember the brand) right after the Merritt has one, but literally can’t think of another one that has an attendant?
Shhh! That's a Glenbrook secret.
Newsflash: you can, I do it all the time
Yes dear, but I'd rather not have an attendant breathing down my neck watching me while I do it lol.
In addition to those: Sunoco in Shippan on Myrtle, Gulf on West, and I think Exxon on Main.
I agree! I’ve gotten out to pump myself without realizing there was an attendant but I feel super weird!!
You may be right and I’ve just been hitting the same handful. I guess in the last 4+ years I’ve been in CT, I just haven’t been to a station with an attendant outside of Stamford and in Stamford, there’s like 3-4 that I’ve seen. Just wondering if there’s a reason Stamford tends to have higher than average number of attendants compared to rest of CT.
That one would also be a gulf
Those Africans at the gulf in glenbrook are hyper agressive. I needed gas badly one night coming home and that was the only spot open I swear the fucker was going to assault me when I was filling up before he woke up. Fought him back though idoit kept threatening he's going to call the cops I'm like go ahead lmao . Fn idoit
There's two more on Hope Street, one is under construction though it was a BP.
Ha I this it all the time too especially when they’re busy, and I agree the attendants look at me like I’m INSANE that I’m pumping my own gas and like closely observe me to watch that I’m doing it correctly. Like, I promise I know how to do this!
The one by the Taco Bell on Main is self service
On this topic, anyone know where the cheapest gas in town is? I always go to the Citgo at 493 Glenbrook Road since it’s pretty cheap but would love to know if there’s anywhere better!
I only ever go to the Mobil on High Ridge. Never seen a station in Stamford that has an attendant.
Not serious I hope
The Shell station, yes.
I try and buy only Shell gas, but that station is overpriced.
I have never seen a gas station attendant in Stamford.
There is an app called GasBuddy that will pull up the best gas prices where you are. I use it all the time.

What stations are you talking about? The only station I know that has an attendant is the Gulf on Hope St
