Could have saved if I had gone to gas station Friday!!

So annoying.  I usually fill my car (always at 1/2 tank) on Thursday/Friday - should have known that they would be "gouging" in FL (there is no cap I believe like other states where they can only raise a nickel or something). 

 

Wed - gas was $2.19

Thursday - gas was $2.29

Friday -- gas was $2.39

 

today - 

$2.69 regular

$2.99 premium

 

Ridiculous!  I felt sorry for the truck next to me - kept going til $74 ...

I'll take $2.69 any day.

 

 

Recently here in California, gas was $3.09, and now it is $3.29.

 

 

Wanna trade?

You're very fortunate.  Some people in my area can't get gas for any price.

I told all my pals to "gas up" and keep a full tank.   They laughed at me.   They don't think it's so funny now...................

Ours is always around $3.00 per gallon for regular in Seattle, so not much has changed....yet. However, i heard something really disgusting on the news this morning. After all the wonderful, generous things people did to help one another in this disaster, there are reports of extreme gouging across Texas near the cities hit. Some are charging $20 per gallon or more for gas, water, and other food necessities at outrageous rates, and even a motel that gouged these poor survivors. Now legal agencies will have to investigate and go after these people. How is it that some people can be so greedy and so cruel?
