Check your calendar.

If the price jumped from $2.95 to $3.25 overnight on the Thursday before Memorial Day weekend, it'd be a clear case of gouging.

If it goes up in 5 cent increments in the next ten days, well, that's the market for ya

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Radio Station on the cape said something about the increase being related to that big refinery fire last week
Who Knows For Sure.. but, as Mike P said... Memorial Day is coming... time to start sneaking it up for the peak traffic weekend.
