Why did gasoline prices jump up by 25-30 cents today? Has anyone had a similar increase in your area?

If you follow the spot contract prices each day, you can see it has gone up over 20¢ in the last week.

Retail prices seem to follow spot prices up within days, but take a few weeks to follow them down.

See Iran, N. Korea. It’ll be even more fun, after a commie national sales tax is passed.

Here in Central Illinois, gas prices went up 20 cents. Went from 3.29 to 3.49. I always look on www.gasbuddy.com. Tells you all the gas prices of each individual gas station in all the states. It also warns you when gas is going up.

Gas spiked from 3.23 to 3.46 Wed afternoon here in Evansville IN., for no known reason.
I remember in my youth, gas would rise 3 cents on Thursday and drop the same on Sunday, like clockwork. Now the gas goes up a quarter and drops by a few pennies per day for a week, until the next spike.

Just when prices were starting to go down. Cain may not like Perry, but he needs to add Perry’s energy ideas to his 9-9-9 tax idea.
