I was passing thru Baton Rouge (La.) today and I saw a sign I could not believe.
Albertson Express had Diesel for $3.199. Didn't know Albertson had gas stations.
I pulled in and filled up, bad news, I could only take 10 gallons.

I got really lucky a few weeks ago. The damn station (EZ go) on Sheridan Road in Lawton just prior to the guard shack entering Fort Sill had the wrong price listed for about 4 hours. I drove by it early a.m. and didn't believe the roadside sign, as it said $2.25. I figured it was just an error on the sign and the pump would say $3.25 An hour later I drove by and stopped, and I looked around and grabbed the nozzle as quick as I could to top her off. Called some folks I new with diesels, then got the hell out of there before someone caught the mistake...

Man, I felt like I was stealing or something...... then I realizes I was stealing from the damn thieves that have been stealing from me for the past 2 years!!!!!!!!!!

Stealing? Hell no. That's about .40$ higher than it should be in the first place.

Reminds me of the fee we were charged by CPL for so many years that was going towards building the nuclear power plant (around houston i think) with the promise of much lower rates rates in the future .

20 years later, NO-NO to nuke plant and I had to switch to a power plant that LEASES the lines from CPL because their rates are cheaper.

Think any of us will ever get our money back? Electric rates are disgusting right now- right up there with the price of fuel.

Fuel prices suck, diesel is on the rise as are power rates.

Got fuel yesterday. $3.499 here in central AZ. I had $110.00 in my pocket. After I filled up I had $3.00 in my pocket. Had a bowl of cereal for dinner.

But I can still afford to smile.

Ill have to get a picture of the sign but the most expensive station in my area just hit $4.09 today. first time I have ever seen a 4 as the first digit.

Most places around me are $3.85-$3.96 for diesel.
