No, it just shows that not as many people go inside. They may be selling
just as
many snacks as ever, as far as I know.


I guess that may answer the obese American syndrome, the same amount of
snacks being eaten by fewer customers .

You still don't get it. There could be just as many snacks customers as there
were before the on-pump readers were installed. Many of the people who used to
buy gas and pay for it inside aren't going inside anymore.

Personally, I would agree that they *probably* don't sell as much. I don't
happen to be an "impulse buyer" myself, so they aren't selling fewer snacks
because *I* shop outside, but I've read that many Americans are. I just disagree
that the decrease in registers is proof that this is the case.
