foreigngirl said:hey Jack - gas stations at 11/Hoover are at 3.25, a gas station at 12/Van Dyke is at 2.99....go and make sense out of this
jack_schitt said:Thats like 15 minutes away from each other...wtf???
I wonder what it's gonna be today at Ford and Middlebelt???
foreigngirl said:I was going through Southfield and Redford yesterday and saw one at Telegraph and 10 mile for 3.19 and one at Telegraph and Joy for 3.09
jack_schitt said:This is completely insane...the stations you mention are within minutes of each other!!
rsnoble-im-back said:The real problem is at the top, most gas stations are only making a few cents per gallon and that gets ate up with credit card fees and drive offs. Im sure theres plenty raping people but I would say most are not. I know an owner and he should me the latest wholesale quote yesterday and it was $3.04 and he was selling at $3.06. Despite what many think, gas is not high profit for the gas stations themselves. All the crap inside is where they make their $.
bigmann245 said:yea that why the shit in there costs a fortune. just like the movies. i worked there and found out the theater doesnt make a dime on the movie ticket. it all goes to the movie industry. they make their money off the concession food. thats why it cost $5 for popcorn.
rsnoble-im-back said:That's why I only go to movies in the winter while wearing a coat so I can sneak in a pack of nutter butters.
Yeah a while back i saw a gas station with the gas prices at 2.57 for regularbigmann245 said:i dont know. i heard on the news that it is going to slow down here soon. the president is ordering and investigation into price gouging also. a lot of statioons are using this as a time to jack the prices up without need. but yea i heard it will stop soon.

and the station RIGHT next door was 10c cheaper
thats gouging if i ever heard it
ahhhhhbigmann245 said:actually gouging is when the stations call each other and they ALL raise their prices at the same time above what it should be so you dont have a choice but to pay their price. the fact that one station puts it at one price and another puts it at a different price is their choice. i know the mayor of jacksonville owns gate gas and he put an automatic 10 cent reduction on all his stations for a week when the gas shot up last year. they can lower it all together they just cant raise it together above what it shoudl be to make more profit.
