A spokesperson at 76 confirmed to The Post Millennial that the gas pumps were reprogrammed to allocate for double-digit pricing.
Gas stations across the US are running out of fuel and in anticipation of an increase in gas prices, gas stations in the state of Washington are reportedly reprogramming pumps to include double-digit numbers in "price per gallon" as the current trend could put prices over $10.00.
At the 76 Gas Station in Auburn, Washington located at 1725 Auburn Way North, gas pumps have been reprogrammed to make room for double-digit pricing. In March, they still had single-digit programming.
A Spokesperson at 76 confirmed to The Post Millennial that the gas pumps were reprogrammed to allocate for double-digit pricing. Although not confirming that they are expecting prices to increase up to $10.00 or more, the current trend suggests the possibility.
All according to plan.
The impact of double digit gas prices will be totally devastating to all pieces of the economy—best case.
The worst case cannot be discussed in polite company.
Resident Bonehead did this. Mask mandates are now crucial for dems to win in Nov. Gotta mail in your ballot or drop it off at a convenient location near you!

How is that possible? Under Trump a few years ago we were a net producer of fuel
Build back better
I miss Jimmy Carter.
High gas prices will crush the economy—for everyone—because everything has oil prices embedded in it.
Regional differences are real for price at the pump—but trucks drive in both high cost and lower cost states.
But, on the plus side: no mean tweets.
Remember during the sharp increase in gas prices in 1979, pumps could not record a price higher than 99.9 cents per gallon? Eventually pumps were set up to accomodate a price over $1.00 per gallon.
It sounds like we are facing the same sort of situation here. Pumps which can’t accomodate a price over $9.99 per gallon will have to be reset to accomodate prices over $10.00 per gallon.
You hate to think the next step, having to reprogram to accomodate a price over $99.99 per gallon will ever happen. But with inflation, who knows what’s in our future?
From the headline, I was hoping they meant Washington DC
Has Barak/Biden closed any more drilling today?
I’m sure Jay Insleaze is fine with this.
The Democrats are like teenagers who are called “cutters”.

The problem is they injure everyone else at the same time.
Plan for the destruction of the Dem Party. Who is the mastermind? Do they think raising gas prices will be welcomed by the public? Mass transportation, electric cars, etc. can not meet the current needs of the people. It also raises the prices of all goods and services that depend upon energy, i.e., trucks, factories, farmers, etc. Insane.
It has been said before, “They voted for it!” I’m looking at you Patty Murray
now you know why they have been building all of those bike lanes
