At 4:00pm gas was at $1.54- regular price. At 4:45pm we went to get gas the lines were long and the price was $!.75. While waiting for 30- 40 minutes, it went to $1.99 to $2.50. We go into town and the 4 stations there was still $1.49-$1.89. One station outside of town was already out of gas, then 2 more were out. Price gauging hurt us pretty good. We had 3 vehicles to fuel.
