Fill it up, now. Supply and Demand is in effect.

Gas at $3.00 or possible shortages by Labor Day in Georgia

A quote from the article:

With supplies uncertain, oil companies and larger wholesalers are ratcheting
up prices, partly to slow demand. Some local wholesalers already are paying 65
to 80 cents per gallon more than they paid three days ago. That kind of price
increase will hit the pumps within a few days.

I'm finding that super walmart and kroger is providing what little relief there is to be had.

O_O Thank you VERY much for posting this, I wasn't aware that all of our gas fuel came from the gulf coast. I just told my mom, so we can make sure to have enough gas to be able to get my little brother next week if things are still down.

Been meaning to do that all week, just haven't bothered. I had sticker shock when I got to the pump and it was $2.79! Now I'm tanked up and hoping it's not so bad in a week or so. Good thing I'm 1/4 mile from the school nowadays.

Heh, that didn't startle me.. but then, gas tends to be about 20-30 cents higher in South Bend, IN than metro Atlanta.
