Hold onto your wallets/checkbooks(fuel prices)
My g/f just stopped at a convenience store and was told that fuel/gas prices will jump 30-40 cents in the morning.They're blaming it on this hurricane.

Heard that prices were gonna go up by tomorrow here in NC too, so we tanked up all the vehicles tonight. We got diesel for $2.499 at one place and found gas for the same price at another place. $65 for about 3/4 tank in my F-350, $24 more for a little over 1/2 a tank in the Marquis, and $15 more in the lawn mower can. Oh yeah....the wife filled up her Explorer too, but I am not sure how much it was. Whatever it was, we went way over the century mark today. If the price DOESN'T go up now, I'm gonna be even more pi$$ed!! Boy they can always find some reason for those prices to go up, can't they? Does anyone know what holiday week-end this is gonna be? 'Nuff said.........

Question, so how is it that the fuel already in the storage tanks at the stations, which has already been bought and refined at price X, is going to jump up to price Y based on the jump in the price of oil??? I know it's economics and accounting, but really? Does that make sense? Nope.
