Gas price gouging

[paineinthearse]

Fill your tanks today, prices are going through the roof.

A couple days ago, Cumberland Farms (Gulf) was selling regular gas for $2.58/gallon; today it is $3.11.

So I drove down the road a bit to the Getty station, where it was selling for $2.77; the attendant told me it is going up tomorrow to $3.15.

I'm registering a price gouging compaint with AG Tom Reilly http://www.ago.state.ma.us/sp.cfm?pageid=929
