OR are we headed into a similar Gas station Culture as the ones in the US, One small shop, multiple pumps, no Attendants, you either pay by the pump with CArd or go into the shop and pay there, then go PUMP your own gas!- ONE man run Stations!

Probably. The pay at the pump model is popular all over North America and Europe because of the popularity of credit cards. It is expected that mobile phone payment systems that use NFC or BLE chips (already in many smart phones) will continue the trend of removing attendants from many different types of retail outlets.

But that requires UPGRADE of fuel systems.
Pumps
Tanks
Fuel Management Systems.

Upgrades cost money...

Who is going to make the investment ?

There have been two 15% increases over the past year on Diesel and Super.
Like you just come back in the country?

At the next budget don't be alarmed when you see the prices hit $4.10 for super and $2.28 for diesel.
