That's cuz the parent company (see ticker SGU) is teetering on the brink of financial collapse.

Petro charged me 2.59 yesterday. The cheapest local "Little Guy" was 2.23 yesterday. Petro's contract price was 2.83 yesterday. If the reports that the Little Guy cash delivery prices will exceed 3 or even 4 dollars/gallon this winter are true, perhaps a lock-in in the 2.80s is cost effective. I suspect that the big conglomerates like Petro are behind these "reports". Gas was "predicted" to go over $3.00/gallon after Rita and as we know, not only did this not happen, it actually went down.
