            • Anyone else notice a sharp jump in prices? Last week I filled up at $1.65 (would have been $2.05 but I had 40¢/gallon discount at Krogers) and then noticed a day or so later that everyone had raised their prices by 14-to-15¢/gallon.

                Anybody here use GasBuddy?

                http://www.gasbuddy.com/

                You can put the app on your phone, and find the lowest gas prices in your area. You can also be a "reporter", and update gas prices on the app!

                      Sort of. Last Sunday, the cheapest gas close to my house was $2.03/gal, but near church it was $1.99/gal. Yesterday, the cheapest gas close to me was still $2.03/gal, but near church it was $2.13/gal.

                      • It's starting to rise before every weekend. For two weeks in a row it was under $1.00/litre during the week but by Friday both weeks it rose by about .16/litre.

                          it's because of the holidays. Gas prices always go up around holidays because more people travel, and they can gouge more profit from people then. And people complain less if they ramp up the prices instead of just hitting them with a sudden jump in price.

                            Here they blame the weather. People run their cars longer when it's cold. Except the weather has been relatively nice compared to other years. And the old supply and demand excuse because of the weather doesn't explain why it jumps so drastically on the weekends.

                            Oh, and .16/litre is not a ramp-up. It is highway (literally) robbery!
