If you don't read the labels, then you are the fool.

As to propane, I know what my empty tank weights. Besides that,
where I have my tanks filled they do not charge a set price for a
tank full. My empty tank is placed on the scale and stays there
until it has been filled. They charge by the weight shown of their
scale. I do geet what I pay for. If your tank isn't being filled
properly then maybe you should buy it elsewhere.

There's nothing decepetive about it. The only problem arises with
higher prices, and I suspect that will always be true and on the
increase.

That is the way I have had my tank filled. Pay by weight of the
propane.

I bet those Blue Rino tanks that you trade in your empty for the full
ones are by some other method. YOu think you get a full tank, but they
only fill it part of the way even counting on that required 'gas space'.
I bet many think the tank is totally full of the propane, or should be.

I have my tanks filled at Ace Hardware for a flat $14.99. They put it on
a scale that tells them when the weight is right, but there is also a
gauge that you can watch to see exactly how many gallons they put in. I
suppose if you took in a partly filled tank you'd end up on the losing
side, but I only fill completely empty tanks, and they put the full 5
gallons in.
