The joy of this little exercise is days like today when I and others can say, “That $2.39 is a rather extreme hike,” which is why a few places didn’t match it. Meanwhile, wholesale prices are lower than they were on Monday. So, if you can wait a day or two to fill up, do so, as prices should drop pretty quickly to below $2.26. Prices did drop below $2.26 in certain places around town, but I wouldn’t describe it as “pretty quickly”, and then we get this surprising price hike to $2.49. So, I’m going to give myself a 1/2 CORRECT, 1/2 WRONG on this prediction.
