Most stations on Monday were around $2.23/gallon. Yesterday, the $2.39 stations dropped back to Meijer and Walmart's price of $2.29. Later in the afternoon, Meijer and Walmart dropped to $2.26/gallon. I haven't been out today to see what's up or down.

I've been thinking that for a while - why are gas prices now what they were when oil was like $80. Because they can . . . . . They're crying now that they're not making the money like they were when they jacked oil up to $140 for absolutely no good reason other than somebody "speculated" it would be that high, so they made it so.

Also, with oil and gas stock piles being the highest they've been in 25 years, why are we not seeing the basic economic forces of supply and demand lower the prices? Finally, why are we seeing such higher prices when oil is $54 now vs. when it was $54 before? Pump prices were around $195 when oild was $54. I know we are switching to Summer blend now, but that shouldn't have a 25% cost variance. Thanks!

Ed goes on to say it'd be wise to fill up if you can find it under $2.34 as he predicts a hike to over $2.40!

Stations along Alpine were at $2.349 already by the time you wrote that! 2) The vote on whether people have a Speedy Rewards card should have had 2 questions - do you have one and do you use it! Yes, I have one, but why would I go to Speedway when I get 5 cents per gallon off when I use my Meijer credit card? Speedway is the leader in gas price rises and Meijer tries to keep prices in line on everything it sells.... 1) Thanks, but you’re a little late!
