It was 1 am and I was driving around trying to find gas, 4 of the stations were out of gas totally, one only had premium left.
A tanker was filling up one station and there was a line of 15+ cars waiting to fill up. I found some for around 3.09, but finding gastook a little work. A very surreal expierence. |

weirdly enough, even in Canada, the same thing is happening:
http://www.canada.com/national/story.html?...da-ea842388ccf5 Yesterday were so many lineups. From last Hurricane, the gas price went to 147.4 / litre ~ 4.70 US$ / gallon Now the price is rougly around 99-119 all over the country... but some stations did make it go up to 179 or even over 2$ a litre. Remember 1 liter = 1/4 gallon. The oil companies are indeed just taking advantage to make more $. BTW, looks like the hurricane is shifting east... and might spare Houston. If that is the case, the amount of dammage won't be as bad. |
