We are around 3.70-3.79 here for regular. I had read some nasty reports of 5.00+ gouging in the early going....... There is one report of a charge of $7.50/gal from futher south in the state (ouch). Well......if the authorities don't catch up with 'em, I hope when things get back to more normal levels the locals remember who they are and put them out of business by not buying there...... I would picket in front of the station telling folks what price they were charging when they thought they were the only show in town............ The wheels of justice have already started grinding in the obvious gouging cases. I believe there is only a fine. I like my form of justice better...........
