those showed up around me a few years ago but now they seem to have mostly stopped, seems like pissing off 100% of their customers every single time they show up may have had unintended consequences over time
Yeah, the one by me started doing them around 2019 or so and stopped about a year back. They were loud as fuck too and I’d hear them echoing off the buildings across the street.
They still do ads but it’s silent slideshows of food and products that are on sale in the gas station store. Still shitty but kind of an improvement I guess?
That’s not something I even begrudge them for. Telling me I can go inside to get a soda and snacks in an unobtrusive way is just a sensible thing for a gas station to do. It’s about the same as the decals they have on their windows to advertise that shit
