I noticed a convenience store at $2.99 had diesel at $3.99. The one at $3.09 had diesel at $3.49. So, they manipulate prices to be attractive to who they sell the most to. Up on the corner gets a lot of diesel pickups and contractor trucks and their equipment. The place with the lower gas is along the commuter cow path
