So, a couple of days ago I observed that the gas prices were sitting pretty at 69.9, a few days after the power outage. Then bam, the next day, we're at 78.5. I was glad I didn't have to use my car much that week, and I only used up about half a tank of gas.
Today, I realized it was a Monday, so before going to work, I popped by the gas station near work (which is always cheap) and it was at 73.5. Not bad, so I filled up my tank.
Coming home this evening, it's now at 82.5. Incredible. A fluctuation of 12 cents over the course of a week. Are there any reports about gas prices on the news these nights? I wouldn't be surprised; the media loves going after the gas companies when the price goes up this high.
