My husband just got home from Jackson this evening. He said in Stockbridge and Perry the lines were long and the one gas station in Perry was sold out of regular and mid grade. The only thing we can figure is people have heard of the prices going up in Kentucky and Tennessee and are rushing out to get more gas.
My husband was worried that something had happened like more terrorist attacks, etc. and he couldn’t listen to the radio because AM doesn’t work in his vehicle.
Yeah, I put $15 in the Dodge Ram this morning, but the Mapco only had mid grade. Now at one point I worked in the petroleum industry (briefly) and all of our stations used a mix of the high grade and low grade to make the mid grade. Maybe they were just anticipating this and tried to sell as much gas as they could by only offering mid grade.
