Spike and trickle all over again..

This was a strange one, though. I don't think all the stations got on the same page at the same time, which is a bit unusual. When the $3.58 spike hit, not all the stations went clear up there and some only went to $3.49, but today all the stations I went by on the way to work were at $3.59. Now this evening the long slow trickle part of the cycle has already started. {{sigh}}

Happy Tax day.. and happy gas spike day, too ...

Here's the latest spike clear up to $3.59 at some stations, but others seem to have only gone up to $3.49. Do you think the former stations will get a clue and drop back?

The spike and trickle cycle has another noticeable characteristic in that the trickle doesn't get down quite as far before the next spike to a higher peak price.

Meijer's has let me down three times now by texting me that gas prices are going up after 1:30. What they haven't said is that it's the next day and not the day of the alert. I'm losing patience with it.... or should I just assume from now on that it'll be the next day?

What's with the Miejer's text alerts ??

I got another one this morning saying that prices were going to go up after 1:30, Thankfully, nothing happened. I'm about ready to turn them off.  Anyone got some info on it?

Saturday meeting and false alarm from Meijers..

I got a gas price warning text message from Meijers this morning saying that gas prices were going to increase after 1:30. I'm not seeing any jump in prices yet. Not that I'm disappointed, of course. Wonder what happened?

We're expecting 7 at the Saturday, April 4th. meeting including my wife and I. It's not too late to make plans to join us.
