    Pure gouging plain and simple. No real basis for the increase. A few refineries are shut down, but how many TENS OF THOUSANDS of vehicles and businesses along the gulf are out of commission, therefore NOT using any gasoline at all? Hmmmmmm??????

    $2.86 for 91 Octane in North Dallas. I had half a tank, but figured it was a good idea.

    Why did the man fill his gas tank this morning?
    Because it would cost more this afternoon.

    I drive 110-120 miles a day... and all my cars do less than 15mpg (heavy American cars with V8s)...

    My cars now spend more money on drinking than I do...

    Good point. The other thing I've noticed is gas looks to be roughly the same price everywhere now. This pricing will definitely have a psychological and trickle down affect and will make people rethink a lot of unnecessary purchases. Bad for the economy IOW.

    87 octane self serve

    I can take the income hit, but I was driving my Yukon XL and the damn pumps shut off at $75 so I couldn't fill the thing.

    Shell Premium Self Serve (93 octane) $3.09 this morning, was $3.19 when I drove past the station this afternoon, in Suburban Philly.

    It was $2.96 yesterday.

    A little farther west, where I was this afternoon, I saw premium for $2.75 a gallon at one station. Made me wish I'd burned more gas so I could fill back up.
