I filled up on Friday for $1.99 per gallon at the Mobil station on Route 60 in Revere opposite the Northgate Mall.
I saw $2.04 at the Shell station on Cambridge Street in Cambridge on Saturday morning and I paid $2.37 in Newburgh, NY this morning. It's still $2.35 at the Exxons & Mobils on the Mass Pike, which is clearly price gouging.

Don't forget, those stations probably have to pay a pretty penny to the Turnpike Authority to get the franchise.
Here in NY, we used to have two bait and tackle shops at two state parks. The buildings are still there, but the shops aren't. Know why? Cause the state wanted $250,000 from each just to keep their doors open. |

That must be the Captree bt & the one that used to be at the Jones Fishing pier, in Lot #10? as I recall. $250k, thats not a lease, thats more like extortion/ransom. |
