I think I got one in a Kmart or Walmart when I was driving cross country and did that too.

No you're not! Both my SIL and cousin accidentally pumped diesel into their cars and nearly ruined the engines. That is sillier!

I would not drive around without a gas cap. You can release vaoprs & cause the Check Engine light to come on. Go to an auto zone or any auto parts store.

ETA I would not bother with the dealership. They most likely will not have one in stock & will cost more than a regualr store.
