I was told that it was because they had to truck it way out there once. Don't they truck it way out everywhere? Capies get gouged plain and simple. My last tank cost me 3.10.

I keep telling you guys--someone has to pay for the bridge toll.

They just jacked the price 4 cents a gallon at most of the BBay stations today--Christmas travel price gouging, or did the price of crude go up, who knows.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Come to CT. $3.54 for regular. I would freak out a little more about it but having a company vehicle helps to.

It's the price we pay on the Cape to be able to fish next to fancy fur coated critters.
My wife can't afford a sealskin coat. Not yet anyway.
Almost fergot that it's hard work downshifting to go over the canal.

$3.19 has been the best I've seen so far but that is now back up to $3.26.

Gotta love the S&S points though.With the commute from Tiverton to Westerly they come in damn handy!I actually got gas for $2.52 a few weeks back.

I hear you on that. Even better is the promotion S&S has going on now, use your iPhone or Android as your scanner and get 100pts. The Misses or I are at the supermarket every few days for little odds and ends. At one point we had something like 500pts, saved about $10 filling my truck.
