I know it takes some time for the oil to go through the refining and delivery process, but I'm not seeing the consistent increase in gas prices I expected.
It just seems strange that the price of gas doesn't slowly and steadily rise as the increasingly more expensive crude is processed through the system. |
Is gasoline a toxic waste that Big Oil sells?
A loss leader, that almost gets in the way of "naptha" type
products? |

3.5650, pretty strong gain today of +20/c. Now, all we need is a little storm brewing in the Gulf and $5.00 (nationally) for retail unleaded will be passed this summer. |
Back up to 3.5430 today. Not quite a record for RBOB. |

New record at 3.5850! Still a slow boil for the frogs. Hurricanes before long, though. |

I smell a jump in gas prices. I wonder if it'll happen later today or Monday. Still stuck at 3.99 here.

Gas prices are now 3% higher than they were last month and nearly 39% higher, or almost $1.15 more, than year-ago levels. |

RBOB hitting almost 3.60 and regular still available here in NM at 3.89... How can that be?

Gas stations have got to be losing money selling gasoline. Its still $3.99 here. These are all Kwik Trip stores in my area. I filled up last night thinking today was the big jump.

I wonder if there is not some sort of "pressure" to let it stay where it is through Sunday night? I'm going to be in hoarding mode so i can get about 15-20 gallons for my new scooter coming next week. I always write the price I buy at on the plastic jugs for fun.
My guess is they want to get though the 4th weekend then all hell is going to break loose. |

That's what I want to know! Some stations here have regular for $3.76. Talk about your loss leader!
I'm dazed and confused. |

I bet you'd be in favor of a price equalization law in the US, huh?
Until we're enlightened enough to do that, you might want to move to someplace a bit cheaper. I, for one, would like to know where that extra dollar of profit is going...
