From what I’m hearing, it the distribution channels that are pricing the gas high to the stations. I’ve got a friend that runs the Dodge’s station here in town and they’re not getting more gas until Tuesday of next week. I’m not sure where they stand on price or amounts as of now.
Lebanon had gas anywhere from 3.89 to 4.05 just depending on where you go. BP and Chevron seems to be the higher and Kangaroo seems to be keeping prices lower.
Today we were out for a little while and saw a range of 3.89 up to 4.19. It was strange because some places looked to be out of gas when we went out, but as we were returning home they appeared to have gas. Odd because we didn’t see anyone getting shipments..
It may have been the distributor who sent the fax that the man was talking about, and that’s the price it’ll be when the next shipment is delivered.
Prices around here seem to be about the same as yesterday, including the one that has regular over $5 a gallon. I did pass one station today that I didn’t pass yesterday and the prices for their regular, mid-grade, and premium made me do a double-take.....
$4.39
$5.39
$5.49
That’s a big jump between regular and mid-grade.
From the talk on Channel 5 tonight, we can expect prices to rise even more, and rationing for a while.
Shades of ‘73. *siiiiiigh*
