Yes, over $4 looks likely for tomorrow

Just a reminder:
$4 gas is likely tomorrow ($4.05-$4.09) as wholesale prices climbed roughly 7 cents on the wholesale market today. Speedway may try and hold at 3.999 and simply not make as much profit, but otherwise, its over $4 we go.
Stay full!

Stations giving a “last call”?

Its 10:00am, and not a price hike to pass… yet.
Is this a “last call” from Speedway and Co. to get gas before tomorrow?
I filled up this AM at $3.89 (really paid $3.70), so we’ll see how long we go until the hike.

$3.999 again soon; not sure about over $4

After fielding through a few phone calls and seeing a news spot on Channel 8 “Gas Surprise” I wasn’t sure what to expect this morning. I logged on Channel 8’s site to try and find a gas story to see if I had missed something. Not really.
I then had a few text messages asking if [...]

$4+ Gasoline and $4.75 (Possibly $5) Diesel is likely

As Speedway hikes to the predicted $3.999 this morning, I was busy looking at markets to see what’s going to happen next.
Unfortunately, it looks like things still aren’t as bad as they will get. I expect gasoline to crest $4 in the next week or two, and diesel prices look like they will accelerate toward [...]

When will the fever break? $3.999 appears to be next.

Comment on the April 30th posting:  There was a hike last week to $3.89, so any brave predictions that $3.75 was the high for the year was dead WRONG.
Saturday, May 10, 2008, 4:45 PM:  My previous prediction was based on the observation that metals had stopped going up and agricultural products had stopped going up, [...]
