There are a lot of gas stations in the USA. I'm sure there is one gas station out there that will not notice if an extra gas pump "shows up." So, to make money find an old gas pump. They are pretty easy to find. They can be found in random fields with rusted metal and old farm equipment. Bring the old pump to a gas station and put it next to all of the other pumps. No one will notice the rust if you put a "passed inspection" sticker on the pump. Connect your pump to the gas stations system. Make sure you use their gas system, but not their money system. Make sure you keep your credit card machine separate from the gas stations. People will fill up the gas stations gas with your pump and pay you.
Maintaining a credit card machine can be expensive. Instead, you should make your pump a full-service pump. You can hang around by the pump, because if you have the time to dig around a junkyard and hook up a pump, you probably have a lot of time on your hands. Then you pump the gas and use a squeegie on their windshield, then give a handwritten receipt with a note that says something like "suggested tip", so you will make even more money than the gas.
