Getting back to the original post......A few years ago the Cumby's near my home in MA had posted three different prices on the same day! I could understand two prices in one day, the morning price before new gas showed up and the afternoon/evening price when they topped of the tanks. I filled my car in the morning, drove to work, came home in the afternoon for a doctor's appointment, and went back out to a store in the evening. All three times the gas price went up.

This was a couple of years ago when gas prices went ballistic in a short period of time. Needless to say, I've never purchased gas at Cumby's since. I don't know if prices are up to manager's discretion or if it is a corporate decision.
