BulletRC Sophomore Author Mobile Posts:165 Points:259,045 Joined:Jun 2012	Message Posted: May 6, 2013 4:39:59 AM Ignore BulletRC Report Abuse Don't mean to be rude, but you should always post the higher stations along with the lower stations. Reason being, if those higher stations haven't been update, then how are other consumers going to know the difference. Hope you catch the point.

eyegotgas2 Champion Author British Columbia Posts:1,106 Points:258,155 Joined:Sep 2011	Message Posted: May 6, 2013 3:24:49 AM Ignore eyegotgas2 Report Abuse We have certain stations which are normally the first to drop prices. When I see a sudden jump at one of the other local stations it is an indicator that a jump may be coming. Yes I do post those to give others a heads up. When one jumps, I keep a close eye on the others to see what is happening.

I feel you should be able to look at the list and find any gas station. Otherwise you may go to one not on the list because no one has updated it and find it is the highest in town.
