I'll have 3 tank fulls please

GENEVA, Ohio -- In one small Ohio town, they're calling it the "bargain of the year."

A BP gas station in Geneva accidentally sold premium grade for a little over $1 a gallon earlier this week. The price was supposed to be $3.01 per gallon, but Monday night the pump said $1.01.

The owner of a lawn service company said when he went to fill up, he saw a huge line. He said as a small businessman himself, he felt sorry for the station owner and convinced a gas station employee that there was a problem.

So the pump was turned off -- angering people who were lined up and had to be turned away.

Geneva is about 50 miles northeast of Cleveland.
