That was an not needed gas price raise for Speedway, many stations have fallen 10+ cents. I hope it gets back to $3.359 or lower in less than a week

Hope? You gotta see Obama for Hope and Change. We don't deal in "hope" in this forum.

Speedway's needs may differ from yours but if they raised prices they felt they needed to. Most of the time they raise prices a big chunk after gradually falling pump prices and/or rising wholesale have diminished their pump margins to near zero (or less after credit card fees). If prices fall quickly after a hike, wholesale has probably started to drop big time. Or...you're in a hypercompetitive market where dealers just can't keep decent margins.

Anyway...if you're in a Speedway dominated market you just have to live with this constantly falling and then rising price cycle. If you learn to time things like I do, you probably pay less than in a market with slower price changes.

It is always Speedway in this area followed by Shell. Speedway which is owned by Marathon controls all prices in this area.

Must be that Ohio-Obama gas tax. I am retailing for $3.199, and falling.
