Re: So what is the deal with gas prices today?

We were in PA last weekend and got Turkey Hill gas for $2.59... An entire tank got us all the way home in a pick up truck. It is strange how we went to PA we had to fill up twice. Kind of makes you think if the gas in NY is a bit watered down???

Re: So what is the deal with gas prices today?

We were also talking about this today -- about how I can't remember a gas price gap like this before. Some places are $3.05 and others are $2.71 which is the cheapest I've seen it over the last few days.

why would it be illegal? prices aren't set by 1 person

each company and owner can charge what ever they want

the gas station I went to was the cheapest and it was packed- capitalism at it's finest- and thank g-d for that!

Because the "legislators" were talking about putting a stop to price gouging recently and a .$50 difference in gas prices would seem to be gouging to me.
Not that I care really, I am very aware of gas prices and shop around before I buy each week. And, I agree, the cheapest stations are always packed!

I don't think they have to adjust the prices until there is a delivery. Gas stations that are not as busy may have highter gas prices because they have not had a delivery yet.

does it matter when the station gets it's shipment? That's what I always thought.
