Except our postal codes are A#A #A#. I've definitely had trouble buying gas at American pumps before, and the staff couldn't figure out a solution.



From your postal code "A#A#A#", it becomes "###00" at the pump. Near the border, most pumps will have this as a sign on them. But I was recently in Florida and that worked fine for paying at the pump.


Oh! Very cool! I'll keep that in mind next time I'm down south!

It was in Florida where I ran into the problem... Definitely no sign where I was :)
