I'm not sure it's cheaper.

I'm not sure how old you are, but gas stations used to have 2 prices. One price for self service and one for 'full' service. Over time I'm guessing more people used the self service to the point where even offering full service didn't make sense.

Tangent: Oregon and NJ gas stations are full service only.

That's because it's illegal to pump your own gas, in those states.
