In my neck of the woods one of the big gas station chains is Speedway. Now in my big city of Portage Indiana (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) we have three speedways. I took my boy to Nana's so she could watch him for the day and on the way home I thought I would stop and fillup the truck. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) The station by mom is $2.97 for regular, I thought I would check the other two. The next station is 3 miles in the wrong direction from where I needed to go but hey look they are $2.83, so like a dumass I stop and fill up the truck ($48). I pass the speedway which is about 1 mile from my house, damn...$2.63 WTF.
My little trip this morning was 8 miles, so there is a $.36 a gal difference between 3 stations all from the same company. Why (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) not that it really matters at these prices now days but still. |

Went by one of the cheap places here this morning and paid $2.55 a gallon. Stopped by at lunch and got gas for the lawn mower and it had already went up to $2.77. Wished I had filles up. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) Drove past the same station this evening after work and the shit was $2.95. Looks like I am either going to start walking to work or get the old Yamaha out of storage and get it running again!!!!
