John, $1.45 is cheap.  In St. Paul, MN, I have been regularly paying $1.89,
and now one station raised their prices to $6.00!!  THEY'VE GOT BALLS!!!

Over the weekend just past gasoline in the el-cheapo stations (Speedway
& Racetrack) went up 2 cents a gallon Sunday night at midnight from
1.23.9 to $1.25.9.

I bough gas Tuesday morning early before the attach at $1.25.9/gallon.
After the terrorist attack, by mid-day gasoline  had jumped 10 cents a
gallon.

This was in Pelham, AL  (just south of Birmingham in north Shelby
County).

In Montgomery, AL, same stations jumped to $1.45.9.

Simple price gouging  ....greedy  bastards!
