I went by that citgo this am when I was taking the tires to the dump and it was $1.99. I guess they raised it since this am. Im sure the gas prices will go up because summer is coming and some people will be traveling.
ReplyDeleteThats just not right to go up that fast just because a beautiful weekend is here and it's a holiday.
ReplyDeleteGas at the Exxon out by the Denny's on Rt 50 was $2.01 at 5 am this morning and at 6pm tonight it was $2.15. The Exxon on westbound 50 at Walston Switch is $2.09.
ReplyDeleteGas prices at the two Universal Citgos - the one across from Perdue and the one farther west on Rt. 50 - have gone up 20 cents a gallon the past three days. I paid $1.89 on Wednesday and it's $2.09 today. The price for a barrel of oil has gone up in recent days, but it takes much longer than a day or two for that to translate into higher gas prices. They also say the refineriies have cut gas production, and, as you suggested, the oil companies are handing motorists the Vasoline because the weather is warming up and that's their clue to start raising prices.
ReplyDeleteOf all the the things the Obama administration can do to stimulate the economy, it would be to keep the gas companies from the raping the public over gas prices. They keep raising prices and no one is going to be going any where this summer and the money will stay in the consumers' pockets.
Gordy SUCKS!
ReplyDeleteThe oil companies ar far bigger economic terrorist that Al Qaueda will ever be.
ReplyDeleteWe should start boycotting the first ones to raise the price each time.

ReplyDeleteAre B & J mkt. & Gordys Tiger Mart one in the same.? The pic posted is of B&J on Mt Hermon Rd.
ReplyDeletehow do you consider this gouging? customer's have a choice. The definition of price gouging is:
ReplyDelete"pricing above the market price when no alternative retailer is available"
just because Gordy Mart is more expensive doesnt mean that they are gouging.
Its the de-regulation of the Commodities Market that has caused most of the flux in the fuel markets....the biggest owners in Oil right now are banks & speculators.
ReplyDeletemust be Bush's fault again
ReplyDeleteYou always hear that the gas stations only make like $0.02/gallon. That may be true sometimes, but when it jumps up $0.10 or more like this, I'm sure they're enjoying a lot more profit than they would like you to believe.
ReplyDeleteDoes this increase have anything to do with the "summer blend" or can we expect another steep jump?
