Don't blame my uncle if that's inaccurate. . DON'T VAX, PROPHYLAX! ____________ There is no anger in Me: If one offers Me thorns and thistles, I will march to battle against him, And set all of them on fire. But if he holds fast to My refuge, He makes Me his friend; He makes Me his friend. (Isaiah 27:4-5) |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 78330885 United States05/10/2021 06:15 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. Yep, for now, but route takes me through Athens and Loganville tomorrow, onto Cornelia and Taccoa Wednesday..... Now worried about getting home. Nevermind rest of the week. Probably going to grab my 5 gallons or what's left of it in the shed and just keep in truck for return home. |

Quoting: 1-2-Follow i remember this shit happened a couple times under obama. Perhaps it's because the Democrats make shitty presidents and the whole anti-fossil fuel rhetoric coming from the left has now gone from words to deed. |

| antsmarching (OP) User ID: 79925259 United States05/10/2021 06:30 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  I wish you well and am jealous you are a resident, I only get to visit in the off season. We looked at Holden for property when we bought EI, if I recall, most of Holden is single family homes and I didn't have single family home ocean front money so we did ocean front condo in EI. Anyhow, be safe and I hope everything works out for you. Thanks so much. I do not live on island. I rent a small mh close to water way. The squatters across this great land have all rentals tied up, and those you can find are sky high rent. Our nation is changing / has changed. I'm actually a mountain girl. Lost everything in fire and came back down here to get a new start. Have worked through the virus, and did my first art show (they were closed last year) this past weekend. Trying to squander my earnings, in anticipation of returning the them thair hills. Which I will do, sooner or later. Best to you and yours too! She's a multicolored lady.

| antsmarching (OP) User ID: 79925259 United States05/10/2021 06:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Are you people are weirdos. Systems are you back online. People are just panicking have fear in the hearts. This is what happens when a nation forgets who God is. Are you people that are fearful and are in a gas line or part of the problem. Part of the reason why America is on his downfall. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72039628 and you are a jerk. Our sharing info about something as necessary as petrol has nothing to do with fear. It is called planning and prepping so we don't run out of gas with our children in the car. So we can drag our asses to work while the rest of you sit in a dark basement and shill those trying to keep up with current events. You are not good at the speech you are trying to make. Bail out now, get some sunshine and vitamin D before the complete brainwashing of do nothing humans takes hold. She's a multicolored lady. Angry red, passion blue, but mostly shades of green.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 62226146 United States05/10/2021 06:40 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 I guess to not run COMPLETELY out of gas. They can't jump the price on day one. So you turn off the high, and modestly mark up the cheap stuff. The next day when everybody is out, you sell the good stuff for a higher margin than you'd have gotten on the cheap stuff. The higher grade let's you avoid price gouging claims a little bit, because of the previous climbing cost. Plus all the high test guys will be burning more of the cheap stuff faster, so sell dat shit faster. Like 2 bumps in one. |

| Ricky M Senior Forum Moderator 05/10/2021 07:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I’m in Pensacola. These people have already sucked the gas out of nearly every gas station around. Yeah like everyone starts panicking. Even without knowing all the details. People are running around here in Georgia in panic mode. I think people just freaking because they don't wanna end up paying arm and leg but what they are doing is causing the prices to go up as well. Clown werldddd....it's like what happened with the toilet paper. |

| OnTheFence User ID: 80094829 United States05/10/2021 07:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have only read the first page of this thread ... I work in Taylorsville, NC and go to the Shell - regular went up 20 cents since Monday (I was off Tuesday). Mid-grade went up 25 cents. Didn't pay attention to Premium. I filled to literally brim, so I'm good for two weeks at least on gas. I did go ahead and did some shopping after work (work at Walmart), buying things we typically need each week (cereal, coffee, milk, grape juice, etc) plus more toilet paper, D3, zinc, and other odds n ends. |
