Message 812488 - Posted: 26 Sep 2008, 23:35:23 UTC - in response to Message 812487.  

$4.04

Well...that's not pretty, but not as bad as I feared it might be......
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...........

Please excuse my ignorance... What is the prize when you win?
Am I wasting my time for nothing other than bragging rights?

Guess I'll go back to answering those Nigerian cash & British Lottery emails I keep getting... Seems to be a better chance of payoff with those than playing here.

G'bye

P.S. winning here for now ;-)

Well, you get a couple credits that don't show on your user profile or on the stats pages. But they're really good credits, I assure you... Ones you don't even have to wait on a wingman to collect...

The place up the street here is also $3.65/Gallon, but the one across the street is $3.61 (Cash Only)

At least we have gas, unlike some parts down south...

Ryhming Time Friday I see was here again..
And after a disapearing act I'm here to WIN
A long absence Ive taken again this I know..
and after this poem I might again have to go

Time is SATURDAY now so I guess its really the end
but looking around I do still recognize a few friends
The Batty Monday as USUAL is still hanging upside down
Mumps,JDWhale, Champ, Fred J Vester and Mike still around
Moon with her coconuts and then msattler and the kitties too
John McLoud VII with his Bull avatar doesnt belong in the zoo
MR Stupendous or Matthew Love missing Hobbes by his side
OFF with the WIN into the Sunset or SUNRISE I DO ride
So then the Stealth Eagle can come swooping in
And let everyone know THAT I deserve the WIN
To any I havent mentioned I certainly mean no ill will
For I have been MISSING awhile thus my mind needs a refill
