I have only one word to say
CORRUPTION Something stinks and it isn't the exhaust from my vehicle. Up $0.50 from last year, does that mean we can expect a higher raise by next summer? I may have to start looking for a commuter vehicle. 32 mi. one way to work and an SUV are starting to be very adverse to my pocket.

Just to really get your goat heres a sample how gas stations work (from someone I know who owns one)..
Say for example a barrle of oil is $40. Day 1. Gas station buys a tanker load (8,000 gal) at $1.25/gal and is selling it for $2/gal. Later that day the price of a barrel of oil skyrockets to $50 and now gas will cost a station $1.50/gal. Station owner raises his price to $2.50/gal. But yet its still THE SAME GAS he bought earlier that day for $1.25/gal. He wont get another shipment of gas until 5 days later. But yet if the price of oil goes down, teh price he charges doesnt drop right away. Silly huh?  |

That's how the business has been for years and tears. There's a min. markup, but no max markup. If I had a business, I'd do the same thing.

$2.71 for premium in Racine today.
Gas prices are making me think of purchasing a rocket again, however, I value the walking experience and I would like to do it normally until I grow old. |
