As gas lines started getting longer, states started rolling out odd-even license plate rationing, where the last digit of your plate determined which days you could buy gas. Odd numbers meant you bought on odd-numbered calendar days, even on even. Some states capped each purchase at $1 worth of fuel (about $8.47 today), translating to roughly four gallons. People made two or three of these rationing-day trips per week just to keep their tanks half full. If you forgot your day, you waited 48 hours, and hoped your station still had supply.
