because I didn't give you the answer you were looking for?

If people are stopping there then they can charge whatever they want. Whining about it on a forum does nothing. Don't like it? Start your own gas station with 30 cent-per-gallon cheaper gas.

Holy Cow, you are a miserable person. I never said they couldn't charge what they want...in fact, I said it WASN'T price gouging.

I wasn't whining about it either, I was just pointing out that I thought it was odd that a gas station charged 30-40 cents more per gallon than any other station in the area, and was curious as to if anyone knew why they do this.

Why are you so confrontational?

I've always noticed Mobile charging a premium for their gas. Some a-holes must be paying it otherwise, they would not be around. Probably the same people who, even when presented with a convenient choice of other gas stations, would buy gas from BP and help keep them in the black. But, that is a b*tch fest for another thread.

here in Huntington town, we always pay a premium - much higher than Smithtown township. I always wondered if it's because there are no self-service gas stations allowed in Huntington.
The Hess station on Jericho Tpke in Commack (Huntington township) is "down" to $2.99 today, while both Hess stations in Kings Park have been at $2.79 for two weeks. I once wrote Assemblyman Raia about this but to my surprise never received a reply ....
Sunoco station at Elwood and Jericho has been at $3.29 for some time and does have customers ... yes I'll drive to Kings Park to save 50 cents a gallon - that's ten dollars less for a tank of gas !
