I've run into this a couple times and there's usually a mute button. The ones I've seen have two columns of 4 buttons and is usually column 2 button 3. It shouldn't be a thing but I make it a point to mute it every time

    Yeah, that used to be the thing, but now in my area most of them have done away with the mute button. I've also tried pushing all of the buttons down both sides, but it still blares me. If there weren't cameras at the pumps, I'd pull out my pocket knife and stab the speakers.

    They removed the ability to mute the ads, like, maybe a year ago is the first time I noticed it was gone. If they play ads I will put headphones in and turn my back to the screen. Ads like this feel fucking abusive.
