Just kidding. I actually got gas yesterday. It cost $1.939 a gallon. Today, I drove by the same gas station. Gas is now $2.149. What the heck happened overnight?
My journey took me by several other gas stations. Most of them were the same. I soon as I passed into the "city" gas was $1.959. It was the same as yesterday. I guess the greedy inflation hadn't made it to the town.

I hate how it jumps and falls so dramatically. I have heard in the past that around holidays it jumps dramatically and also as the weekend is apporaching it does as well. Here it has been hovering back and forth between $1.90 and $2.20. There was a point a few months ago where it had dropped down to $1.40. I loved that!

A few months ago I was saying the same thing, one day gas was around a $1.50 and then boom it was almost a $1.80 in just a couple of weeks. It has leveled off and we are hovering around $2.10 near home and $2 near work. It's way better than the almost $4 that it was a couple of years ago so I'm not going to complain about it. It's frustrating though when you plan on getting gas in a couple days and the price jumps before you get to the station.

@beaniefanatic13 I almost never get lucky enough to catch the gas when it is cheap. I usually have a full tank when that happens. Let the price jump up 20 cents and I am at the pump.
