I found it for 98 cents cash, if you wash a few dishes and sweep the parking lot!

Not really. What does 'cash' have to do with it, legally?

I've been filling up my tank every time I see it under 3 bucks. And it's been happening often in the last couple weeks. Too bad we can't keep a giant gas tank like a propane (and propane accessories) monstrosity tank on our property without express written consent.

Has this got to do with the Rockefeller move?

Driving the price of gas down so the conservative base, who never got/took anything from the government like those welfare queens, and are living on Social Security & Medicare, can afford to drive to the polls next month.

This was a Murphy's (Did you know Murphy's is owned by Wal-Mart?).

As I was posting this, Popdigr says the Minit Mart has $2.05 on their sign today.

Apparently Gov Corbett's legacy has started. He all but gave away the fracking gas for free. Receiving massive campaign contributions from that industry. He massively cut spending to schools and transportation. And now has done what is expected. Gasoline taxes must increase by a total of $0.28 per gallon. He did so in a manner that all but the most informed would not notice. And intentionally delayed tax increases for half a year so that increases occur after elections.

Tonight Exxon in New Jersey is $2.199 per gallon. Exxon in Pennsylvania has increased this week to $2.689 per gallon. The entire 28 cent increase has not yet been imposed. So future PA prices will increase.
