Well Gas is going up already on account of the hurricane. It jumped over .20 in ten minutes here and now some gas stations in Greensboro (where my wife works) is up to $4.29 a gallon.... it has been around3.35-3.65
People are in lines filling up and I think they are storing gas, which is driving the price up more. I just hope that none of the refineries get destroyed, then we would be in trouble.

Yep. It's the idiots who are lining up to fill the tank (even though they don't need to) that is driving the price up. They are causing higher demand, which lowers supply, and increases the cost. I don't know why people get in such a panic.

Yep yesterday it was 3.56 today i found it 4.09 and 3.99


and yes had to get in a 4 deep line..

Greensboro

My mom went to SC today she saw it for $4.69 in SC on the way.

Some reports from north Mississippi have been placed at $4.99 and over $5. Here in north Alabama, the range is $3.99 to $4.34.

From the title, I thought this was for prayer

My bicycle gets great mileage. It's my sole means of transit and I'm NOT overweight.

My husband is paying $4.49 right now. Grr. This is ridiculous. I told him I think people are taking advantage of the situation.

yeah there are many filling up. The first increase is the thought of the hurricane then everyone getting gas causes it to go up more. I was in shock when my wife told me that she paid 3.89 and across the street it was 4.29.
She just got home and said it went up to 4.49 since lunch and that is in downtown Greensboro N.C.

The local news told us to fill up before tomorrow. The stations paid less for their gas then they will this weekend obviously so the rate increase is premature.

OK, wen just called. She needed gas in the family van. $4.15 at the pump; it was $3.59 this morn. The station was sold out.

One station was taking prepayments and not giving change back. Police were dispatched and the angry patrons were asked to leave.

Here, too.

We went into WalMart to shop, came out and found gas had gone up .40 cents. There was a .20 cent increase yesterday...60 cents in two days.

All the Houston area WalMarts closed their doors at 10:00 this morning, imagine WalMart doing that.

Yep, my sis in law stated that in Jackson area she saw $6!

Just got some fuel for my work van ($3.79); the line was very long and chaotic.
I saw several stations here in Nashville that were closed. Either they sold out or just closed till tomorrow and Sunday so they could gouge us.

One report on Fox News stated that a station in TN was charging $7 today.
