work at convenience/gas store coastal nc. No gas UPDATED | |
antsmarching (OP) User ID: 79925259  United States05/10/2021 04:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ain't that some shit. People had begun travelling to coast Easter, having been locked up for a year. Our beach had reservations booked through Oct. People in town, spending money, feeling free, being alive again. Quoting: antsmarching This morn, Corp called, told us, shut off premium. For now we have reg unleaded and diesel fuel. They told us prices would begin climbing and reach $5/gallon quickly. Next larger town ran out of gas by afternoon. Even interstate gas stores. Only ones who will have gas are those who receive from western part of us and any other stores who get east coast deliveries will have to pay top dollar to get oon west coast schedule. We didn't really think "they" would allow us to live freely, unvaxxed this summer and travel within us by car freely, did we? Stock up on anything you by that travels by gas. Prices are getting ready to skyrocket. Just hit my grocer and bought food at today prices. Tomorrow, who knows? I've got property rented out through October in Emerald Isle NC, where along the NC coast are you at? Never mind, I see you are at Holden, beautiful area. I used to love going to the beach music festival at Emerald Isle! We are a small beach, and working at the corner store, I hear about everything. I am off tomorrow. If the shortage continues I will talk to some of the property managers Wednesday. This may blow over quickly, I pray it will. But it is all a little too suspicious for my glp enquiring mind  She's a multicolored lady. Angry red, passion blue, but mostly shades of green. Greg Allman |

| antsmarching (OP) User ID: 79925259 United States05/10/2021 04:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What's the reasoning behind shutting off premium when you're not out of it? Quoting: Monger of Many Things Policy is too shut off any grade when it reaches below 1000 gallons in order for Corp to take control of the situation, typically suppliers or scheduling. We were alerted that premium was at 1500 gallons yesterday (sunday). Procedure is to email DM and they take it from there. She's a multicolored lady.

| antsmarching (OP) User ID: 79925259 United States05/10/2021 04:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm away from home with an empty tank. Better fill up when I go out for supper. Thanks to GLP for raising my awareness. Quoting: Starbird Woah, yes, do fill up. I contacted all my friends and family to fill up today too, if they can. I plan on staying topped until this passes.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 78310900 United States05/10/2021 04:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yep. And of course I didn’t need it at Sam’s club at 8 am in Atlanta for 2.55, just paid 2.89 in Covington and told my wife after she gets kids get gas and she reported back 2.89 also back home in Dekalb County At least you got some. People have been saying Ingles are out and several other stations in through Clarkesville, Cleveland, and Cornelia. I filled up a couple nights ago as soon as I heard of the outage, so I'm good for this week, but if this goes into next week I will have to take some vacation towards the end of the week. I have a 40 min drive to work. |

| antsmarching (OP) User ID: 79925259 United States05/10/2021 04:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | anyway to confirm this before people ask? Quoting: T-Man maybe local website or certain app that will say whats available and whats not? cool thread!!! after lockdowns this could be another great way to restrict peoples travel plans Also could serve to make further arguments for electric cars. But remember, Tuesday is the day, after Tuesday if the pipeline issue hasn’t been fixed, THEN expect the pump prices to go insane etc. there’s no way to know right now. Good point about electric cars. She's a multicolored lady. Angry red, passion blue, but mostly shades of green. Greg Allman |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 80317327 United States05/10/2021 04:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just stopped at our local shell, no mid grade or premium. 50 miles south of Nashville,TN Quoting: liljohn There should only be one grade of car gas, it would reduce production costs considerably. Nope. I can't put anything but 93 octane in my car. In the pipeline, there is only one grade. Additives at the terminal make the 93. Many stations have blending dispensers that mix regular and premium to form the midgrade. You can buy octane booster at any auto parts, WalMart and some gas stations to make 93 octane. Save money too. |

Did we all forget the year long lockdown where the majority of the population stayed home? Who was using all of that fuel? They dumped it into stratigic reserves during lockdown and are now going to capitilize creating a fake scare to increase prices. |

| Billxam, ABATE, AWHA User ID: 56270897 United States05/10/2021 05:02 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Report from SE Michigan, Ann Arbor area. So prices here were at the $2.59 ish level and jumped to $2.89 in the past week. No issues at all with different grades. Remember, we have a Marathon refinery in Detroit. Up north where my cabin is....well that's a different story. The prices up there are always a good 10 cents more. Waters, Michigan BP where I fill up is still at $2.56 a gallon for regular.
