Flagging the next price hike (Flag Day is June 14)

Comment on the May 29 prediction:  Yes, we did get that hike on Saturday the 30th.  CORRECT.

Sunday, June 7, 2015, 8:00AM: Time to game plan for this coming week.  Despite recent market gyrations, wholesale gas prices have been pretty steady since May 13, and we have seen two re-sets to $2.79 since then.  With prices as low as $2.51 in Lowell, I think we are set-up for a third reset to $2.79 this week, and if I were to guess when, I would guess Tuesday.  So, my advice is to fill up at the end of the day today, and maybe again Tuesday morning, keeping this prediction in mind. –Ed A.

  1. Just got back from Paris yesterday, and saw that gas prices were at $2.75 in my area (48051), and still are today. Also saw that Meijer also changed pricing, and instead of $0.15 a difference per octane, they now charge $0.20 difference for each octane ($2.75/2.95/3.15).

  2. I was able to get a 5gal can and my caprice filled for $2.45 today. I’ll be watching the next couple days to be sure I can top it off at that last minute, hopefully.

  3. Half dozen stations at 2.50. – 2.51, the rest at mid 2.50’s and above on the south side of Grand Rapids.

  4. Your prediction was right on the mark… Looks like $2.79 is the new set price coming for most of us, courtesy of Speedway. But not surprising since many stations were starting to sell at a loss…

  5. Filled up for $2.699 this morning on my way to work–then saw $2.599 in another part of Toledo this afternoon! Grrrr! 😐

    (At least I’m good for two weeks!)

  6. The anniversary of the youngest player to play in a major league baseball game, 15 year-old Joe Nuxhall with the Cincinnati Reds in 1944. I guess that is as good of excuse as any for GREEDway to raise prices today.
