It's Them, Not Me: Hey! What Gives!! Gas Goes Up 18 Cents in One Minute!!!

I was so proud of the GRBs last week as gas prices around here finally dropped below $4.  Those son-of-a-guns were actually having pity on their victims. 

Then, Saturday, I was in for a shock.  They didn't shed their skin that much.  Saturday driving over to the Vinyl Frontier in McHenry, Illinois, I noticed some stations around $4.10.  But McHenry is always more expensive than Fox Lake, so didn't think about it much.

Then, driving over to Stormy Monday for the band, I saw that gas stations in Fox Lake were up to $4.17.  Friday night, coming home from Stormy's it was $3.99!!  What in the world happened between Friday night and Saturday afternoon to "enable" them to raise the price like that?

Now, it will take a month to drop back to that $3.99 price.

Up in a Minute, Down in a Month.  It Must Be Great to Be a GRB.  --RoadDog
