My gas is under $2.50 now, I’m gonna start putting up those stickers. Thanks, Joe!

Someone was complaining because he tapped into the SOR to lower gas prices. I don’t get it, no matter what he does they will bitch and moan.

Well, before that they were complaining that he wouldn't do that, so yea. Damned if he do, damned if he do not.

Yeah dude. They don’t have an ideology other than “my team good” and “their team bad.” Expecting any nuance beyond that is a fools errand.

It was that low around here, but they ticked price up a dollar a gallon in order to price gouge ahead of this winter storm

I saw this exact thing happen between my commute to work and lunch break. It was $3.15 on the way in, $3.90 at lunch. If you went two miles down the road, it was still around $3.25. It just happened that the $3.90 station is a much larger company and a much more trafficked area. Gouging people is disgusting.

I drive 20 minutes to work. Gas is consistently ~$0.50/gal more expensive on the work end. (Same chain).
