Clue: It’s for refuelling a VW Polo.
Shopping around for cheaper fuel is always a good idea. But getting a low price is only a part of successful fuel cost management.
Check out the transaction on the reciept. There’s nothing wrong with the price. But there’s everything wrong with the fill-up.
The driver’s car is a VW Polo. A Polo’s tank holds 45 litres of fuel but they bought 55 litres. Something was clearly going on there.
Maybe the driver was filling jerry cans … or fuelling another vehicle entirely.

completely invisible. All it takes to make them visible are the right tools
