Why is it when gas prices go up, every gas station is quick to change thier price, However when gas prices go down there is a huge variance between stations! Currently I am seeing gas prices raging from 2.56 to 2.84. That is a huge difference in price. I hear on the news the excuse is “Larger stations have a stock pile and can not change price as quick as smaller stations that buy gas as needed.” This does not make sense! When prices go up, they don’t wait until their stockpile is depleted before raising the price!
Make sure you travel the extra mile to get the cheaper gas. Maybe those guys who are hedging their bets on making a extra money will think twice about their game.
