Default gas pump mess up

I pulled into the gas station to get gas yesterday and noticed the pump I was at had the same price for all three grades. I glance over at the other pumps which were correct and had three different prices. Well, I proceeded to fill my truck which was almost empty with 93 octane for the same price as 87 octane. $3.64 a gallon

Well, I hope thats what was in there. LOL I used the 93 nozzle. If the other pumps are right, I couldnt see this one pump getting the fuel from a different tank than the other pumps.

happened to me once before except only 2 of mine were the same. the middle grade was the right price. 87 and 91 were the same.
