Selling gas at a premium
In terms of gasoline prices, I've found that how much you pay has a lot to do where you pump. Last week, my wife and I drove to Roanoke, Va. for a week-long vacation. On the day that we headed back to York County, I had to fill my tank. The gas station near Interstate-81 sold regular gas for $4.15 a gallon. Two miles headed in the opposite direction of I-81, gas was selling for $3.82 a gallon. It seems that gas suppliers are taking advantage of those who need fuel immediately. Have you noticed any discrepancies in price in relation to the location of particular gas station?

The CITGO in Rossville seems to charge whatever they please and change it almost from one day to the next. Unfortunately, for those livling around there it's the only game in town becaues there's not another gas outlet for several miles in any direction. The past Tuesday regular was selling for $4.15--the highest around. Today, Thursday, it was back down to $3.99.
