A local Cumberland Farms Store about a mile from my home is usually the cheapest gas around. Within a two day period, their price of 87 octance went from $2.56 to $3.11, a 55 cent a gallon increase in two days! Such a deal!

The first day at $3.11 per gallon sent people other places. Sunoco next door to them was at $2.89 but quickly put the 87 up to $2.95. A nearby Mobil & Shell were at $2.89 and kept it there. Now they are really selling some gas now compared to the empty Cumberland Farms.

If the oil companies are raising prices to keep people from using so much gas, I think they may succeed. How can the average American afford to drive all over God's creation at those prices?
