Then try to sue them. In my town the gas stations are all price fixed. One goes up, the others go up within 2 hours - to the
exact same price. Coincidentally most buy the same gas - I literally seen a gas tanker pull out of one gas station riding to the next ...
And then they price fix the gas price between towns. A different city just 10 miles away with the
same chain of gas station has a different price, because all gas stations in that town have the same price (give or take a penny).
That should be illegal.
And how come is it that gas magically gets more expensive over the weekend or holidays?
If my fuzzy memory serves me correct, in Germany a gas station is not allowed to
raise the price of gas faster and
wait longer to lower the price if changes need to be made.
