Did gas prices jump $0.30/gallon yesterday where you live?

I couldn't believe it.  Gas jumped $0.30/gallon overnight.  It has taken weeks to get down to where it was and overnight it is back up.  The reason given is because people aren't driving as much right now.  Guess the oil companies still have to make a profit whether we are consuming their products or not!
Have a wonderful day!

I actually got gas day before yesterday and paid $3.16 gallon.  Was very pleased.  Was lowest around here in Tennessee.

I'm in Missouri & some stations went up about 20 cents yesterday but not all of them did.  Today the ones that did go up went back down.  Go figure  :BangHead:

Not where I live.  Gas has been going down but it's the same price it was a few days ago.

Yeah.  It went from around $3 to around $3.30 in the past few days.  Bad deal.

I noticed gas prices around me jumped up about $0.20 late Thursday.  My guess is the jump in price is due to the holiday weekend.  I've typically seen that pattern around major holidays or 3-day weekends (like Memorial Day and Labor Day too).  Guessing they are trying to capitalize on all the travelers over the weekend.

I'm expecting the gas prices to slowly come back down sometime next week to where they were before the holiday.  Typically seems to be the trend.

No, it's gone down like .24 in the last couple of weeks for now.

Here in southwest Ohio it had been going down to 3.30 and some below but now it's back up to $3.60 something.
