Re: Gas Prices - Part 2

There is something funny going on here. There is a Speedway station a few miles outside the outerbelt that has been consistently a minimum of 20 cents lower than anyplace else. They were $2.99 and most others where at least $3.19, some at $3.25. This was all over the last couple of weeks, fairly stable.
Then last week it went upsidedown. Now that station is higher than the competitors, not by much $3.15 vs $3.25, but why?
When I was young, working in a Shell station, the margin was about $0.04/gal.
It varied slightly, a fraction of a penny or so, but that's it.
Today it must be substantially higher, but I have no idea how high?

Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
