Gas prices before the snow earlier this week
I didn't really think about it until today, but I'm almost sure there was a "coincidental" jump in gas prices the day before the NorEaster they threatened us with earlier this week.
There may have been some sort of "real" reason, I wasn't watching the news very closely that day. Well timed though, if nothing else, I saw lines at a few stations that evening...

i paid 1.85 here in franklin before the storm warnings, and sure enough as soon as there were some rumblings about snow the price jumped to 1.89, then 1.99, now its up to 2.09 |

$1.99?? $2.05?? It was $2.04 yesterday on the way home from work (0700) On the way back into work, it was $2.14 (2200)!! There is gouging going on for sure!! One station in another town was at $2.79 a few months back. Then the gouging talk hit the media. The next day, they were at $2.39!! Crooks!

the thing that bugs me is.... they raised the prices even thought that noreaster turned and went out to sea completely missing us which wouldnt justify the price increase ....so it shouldve dropped like a hot potatoe..but it didnt... thats bull crap! |
