they were the $3.14 (Shell) and $3.24(Kroger). Yesterday they were both $3.14. the other one (BP) about 1/2 a block down usually runs anywhere from 5-10 cents higher, today they were $3.45. So that's at least a 20 cent jump over night. We aren't expected to get any more than snow showers from Sandy. Are we being fleeced?

Funny thing is you can use your Kroger card at Shell to get even cheaper gas.
