Because you're buying by the gallon, not by the pound.
On a cold day, gasoline, just like any other liquid, will condense as it gets closer and closer to freezing (as it gets hotter, the molecules move away from each other, eventually the point where they completely separate, which is called "evaporation").
Therefore, ten pounds of gasoline will take up less space on a cold day, than on a hot one.
When you buy ten gallons of gasoline in January, you will get more pounds of gasoline than if you bought that same ten gallons in July.
It's the weight of the gasoline, not the volume, that determines how much you can drive your car before you have to fill up again.
