Did they offer that as an alternative?
If it's a retail tax, then your idea of "it's not applied to what's in the tanks" is irrelevant.
I detailed some of the possibilities.
No need to repeat myself.
You can consult your own tax professional when you and rat open your own gas station.
Or you could just admit you are wrong and move on.

Are you getting more or less gallons when the gas tax is .52 cents per gallon insead of .41 cents per gallon.

WOW! I'm surprised the plumber runs a business (or does he?). This is a very easy concept to grasp.

Premium at regular price was your range of choices.
I could be wrong, but I have always believed that the price of parts charged to a customer is always subject to retail sales tax. Is that not true for plumber-installed parts?
Maybe a craftsman can just charge for his services and roll the parts in for free. I honestly don't know.
Now it's obvious that you are just trolling.
Did the customers that needed premium (as in my wife's last three cars insisted, and they would warn you on the speedometer info display when you tried to cheat) get the regular price also?

If they had half a brain yes, it was posted on the pump.

Plumbers don't do anything for free.
If he paid retail (and thus the sales tax) for the parts he is using, the State has already gotten their bite. There used to be a way for those holding a valid business license to avoid the sales tax on things purchased for eventual resale to a retail customer - is that still the case?
If a plumber resells a part for more than he buys it for, then he needs to pay the sales tax over and above any tax he may or may not have paid at the wholesale level.
If this hypothetical plumber wants to calculate the tax on the inventory he hasnt sold yet and send it in ahead of time, that would be perfectly legal as well.
The government never complains about taxes paid early.
If the hypothetical gas station did the same thing, I dont see a problem.
I am not a tax professional.
I have professionals advise me on what is legal.
Wrong.

I know ole Joe the plumber didn't have one of those, a valid business license . . .
You two have something in common.
