Was there filling up on Saturday they were $2.93 at about 3pm and the girl said they weer going up to $3 in a couple of hours.

Why is that how come they can switch it any time they want. Not blaming Lakeport specifically just want to know over all on all gas stations road and marine.

is it they look at the weekly total see they did not make enough to cover next shipment or to turn a good profit so they adjust mid day or whatever, or is it because they called and had to order more gas at a higher rate which in turn goes to how come the gas companies can adjust when ever the feel the need to and make Billions in profits I.E.
