Would you purchase fuel here?

I would not use the pay terminal at the pump but rather go inside and use either cash or card with the clerk.

Are you aware of your surroundings? Anyone at anytime can be a target in a transitional space. Criminals choose the time, place and targets.
If you are aware then are you prepared?
I had this guy follow me to my truck from just inside Winco. I observed him the entire time in preparation for anything he may do or if he came too close.
I decided the best course of action would be to quickly get into my vehicle and immediately lock all of my doors. This created a barrier and separated me from him.
Sharing this will hopefully bring a constant awareness to you whenever you are in transitional spaces.
No one is coming to save you. The police are on average 20 to 30 minutes away.
Be prepared.
