Lines at the gas stations....

Same in Burlington. . .and this was at stations that had jacked the prices up over 30 cents from earlier today.
There were lines at those stations because all the other stations had jacked prices by about 80 cents.

I know! Charlotte and the Bordering SC area were all freakin out too cops were directing traffic at some gas stations!!!! hahaha But, yeah I went to BP and when I was there everything was gone except premium so I was fine lol EXCEPT paying $4.59 a gallon...ugh. Cause honestly people freaking out and getting gas makes it worse. I think people need to relax and i wanted to resist going and filling up to make a difference, but one smart person isnt going to make a difference so I might as well fill up before stupid people take all the gas lol, (all S2Ki members are excluding from being "the stupid people")
haha

I saw premium for $5.09 tonight. If this isn't a perfect example of price gouging, what is?
Do you people seriously drive so much over the weekend that you couldn't avoid paying these high prices? I'll bet they're back to normal by the middle of next week, if not before. If we keep paying, they have no reason to drop prices.
Maybe it's the media's fault. They tell everybody to go fill up, we're going to run out, there's a storm coming. Maybe they should be telling people, conserve this weekend, prices will be up but they'll come back down if you give it a couple days.
Sorry all...it really makes me mad to see people lined up at the gas stations trying to pay top dollar for gas, and then we'll spend all week listening to them all complain about it.
