“If gas stays at $3 per gallon, I know a lot of officials just won't go.”
Bill Freeman
“If the high-grade gas commands 20 cents more per gallon, ... he can pocket $200 for selling 1,000 gallons of regular at the higher price.”
Chuck Olsen
“Gas prices could easily hit $3 per gallon this summer. That threshold was already reached last year.”
Jim Rink
“The wholesale cost of gas on average was up nearly 42 cents per gallon. In some areas as high as 60 to 70 cents cost increases have happened. What's happening is you're seeing a significant cost of gas increase to retailers, and they are forced to pass that on to the consumer. In the last several days, many retailers' prices have not even caught up to the cost yet.”
Bill Walljasper
“If you're selling a couple of thousand gallons a week, a penny (overcharge) on a gallon of gas becomes real money pretty fast.”
Steve Meissner
“The trip before, we took 4,000 gallons of fuel, and it was $2.19 per gallon. We had over an $8,000 fuel bill on a $30,000 stock.”
