Staff at the Cuff Miller petrol station have found a simple way of stopping people from not paying for their fuel.
They ask people who say they have no cash and will pay later to leave their thumbprints.
Petrol cheats are being deterred by this, especially if they have criminal records.
Other petrol stations with the same problem would do well to follow this rule of thumb.
