Quite a few stations running out around here. But they seem to be getting filled back up today.

When I left for work last night, 2 of the 3 gas stations between me and the interstate were closed, with plastic bags over the pump handles, and the 3rd one was open but only had premium. So I got enough to get to work and back and then this morning on the way home, they were all open with all grades of gas, so I went ahead and filled up. I guess their tanker trucks came late last night or early this morning to fill them up.

I talked to a guy I work with, he said the MCX on base was out too.

I haven't been back out, but I talked to my wife earlier and she said she wasn't able to fill her car up cause the station limited them to $20 and it was the only one with fuel.

Lady at the handy mart was shutting pumps down earlier and they only had premium. She said they weren't sure when the truck would be in.

Thanks for all of the congrats. Yes, we are very much enjoying being a Pa and a Mo Mo...lol

I've noticed a few stations around here are now out of fuel. Hopefully this will be over in a day or two. I knew something wasn't right when I saw some stations raising prices as much as $0.25 on Sunday. Yep, nothing like a little price gouging.

Be Good!
