I thought the prices went up because of the middle east situation? OPEC and their croonies were supposed to be our biggest suppliers, now its south of the border. Can you please make up my mind of which end im getting screwed from.

Funny the nothing happend yet down south,and the price of gas is almost 4.00 if not already passed 4.00. Possiable 5.00 for gas? I blame congress for being pockects of the big oil company's shame on them. It's no wonder this congress is at it's lowest rateings ever. Low gas prices was to good to be true. So I wonder just how much the big oil CEO's will make.Bunch of low life crooks....

Okay, now I'm officially confused. Everybody on this board is saying that prices have been raised artificially, yet, I just drove past four gas stations whose prices are LOWER than last week, and the prices have been dropping for the last two weeks or so. So what's the truth, or are you all just blowing smoke out instead of the facts? Why are the prices still dropping?

Just another excuse to raise gas prises... Marietta would have raised them anyway because of the holiday weekend..

I saw this coming since July. I always knew that there is a 100% chance of this happening around Labor Day. Prepare for $4.50 gas, folks. Fallback of gas prices has officially ended, right on schedule.
