With snowmobiling being very busy over the past few weeks I am sure Skelley's is selling more high test than usual, so the price will fluctuate more often. They really do not care how much gas costs per gallon- the service station owner is trying to make $XX per gallon, not a percentage of price. I think that is what you have seen at Skelley's- natural price fluctuations based on new deliveries.

I started to write a reply to this thread yesterday stating the ignorance of the posters about the petroleum industry. Sounds like to me, you have no clue about the gasoline business. Your view is purely from a consumer's side and have no business voicing how a owner/operator should run the site, let alone this particular gas station/convenience store. Stick with what you know.
