....and I was happy to find it, even at an $0.80 cent markup over this time last week.
Been this way since Thursday here, combination of delays due to re-routed supply route and panic buying.
This situation shouldn't last too long, ya can't stockpile gasoline as easy as ya can ammo.

That depends on both your methods, and quality of fuel. I have seen set ups made to store up to about 300 gallons, that were beautifully made. Gas does not store as well as desiel, true, but only propane or nature gas will store really long term.
I, personally, store about 50gals in cans, and try to keep both generators, and the truck full.
We use store fuel points, sale prices, and gas cans to level out that kind of fluctuation in supply or price.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

I try to keep a hundred gallons of diesel and as much gas. You never know during hurricane season here.

We have 4 vehicles full of gas. 10 gallon in the zero turn mower. 15 in gas cans. 5 in the generator.
As soon as the first tropical storm pops up in the spring i fill everything and keep it that way. I use Sta-bil in the stagant gas and have never had a problem. All that is NOT panic buying. I get it before everybody else even thinks about it.
I"m high enough here in my spot of East Texas that if my place goes under water, 1/3 of the state has drowned! I'm good.

Creeping up here, too. Paid $2.66 for diesel last night which is almost 30 cents over last week. I'm a 14 hour drive from Houston.

According to your state attorney general, you were price gouged and the business owner should go to jail.

typical on the left coast, they use ANY excuse they can come up with to jack up Fuel prices...
its $3.29 around town right now...was $2.99 the other day...
paid $2.59 when I went up to Potland on Friday....which was nice to also be in Blue Sky and Clean Air
vs, down here where we currently are rivalling Beijing for the worst air quality on the planet.

Birdwatcher Mike. Hope Gov. Abbott fines those scalping bastards! It only went up .30 cents per gallon here in N. TX. But it's still BS!

Ya, all the way out here in Washington State, I was listening to an interview of somebody (don't know who) and heard an increase of 10 - 15 cents predicted.
I laughed. It'll be 50 cents to a dollar a gallon higher for as long as that high price can be milked.

It's represents a significant change in the supply of a price inelastic product. You missed my point... that might be a legit excuse... but a legit one is a rarity...on the west coast... they even seem to see the need to raise prices when they have to change a light bulb in the men's room... but as the democRATS say " Don't let a disaster go to WASTE!"

Birdwatcher no lines here, has only gone up 20 cents Hmmmmm....anyone else see the obvious irony here? People in San Antonio are stupid? Dave Yes... mob rule is in a full insane mode in SA. They are removing statues that butt hurt a small faction of communists and sympathizers. The name change of Robert E. Lee high school was decided by 7 people with no local input. I watched with disgust as people fought over bottled water a few days before Harvey arrived. Now the mob is hoarding and fighting over gas. The fine citizens of SA elected themselves a far left socialist city council who feel the need to pattern their government after the left coast. The once great military city is now an embarrassing chithole. BP...

Filled up yesterday in Nowata. $2.29 per. Got a 2 liter bottle of Strawberry Fanta too. $2.29 for that as well. Nowata's Walmart went under about twenty years ago though.

About 30% of the nation's refining is shut down.
