was Re: [AT] Gasoline $

[pga2 at hot1.net]

Yesterday afternoon I watched all the Diamond Shamrock stations in Temple go 
up to $2.699 from $2.499. The BP station the dealership uses stayed at $2.419
until sometime last night (after 6:30 PM). It was up to $2.699 as well this 
morning when I came to work. At least we're not up to $3 yet.......

When I went inside to pay, the cashier said the price was going up to
$2.899 at 8:00 PM and would be $2.999 by tomorrow morning.  They're
supposedly watching the price changes very closely with regard to
timing.  There was comment on the local news tonight that there is a
limit of a 30-cent increase in 24 hours.  Your guess is as good as mine
as to how the price increase timing is determined and I don't know
whether it is a state or a federal regulation that's being referred to.
For that matter, I don't know if there's any truth in the price change
limit.
