    The "reason" gas companies use is the change in the formula from fall/winter to spring/summer time formula. That's half way correct but shouldn't cause them to sky rocket like they do. Most oil companies will raise prices, this also goes for gas processing companies, based on any media info about a oil spill or anything to do with oil being lost/wasted.
    You know better; next time will be a ban.

    I never pay attention to gas prices. Whether I like the price or not, I still need gas! So 20 or 40 on x pump when I need it.

    1 gas prices always go up in the summer by a lot

    Who cares? It's gas. It's needed. Can't afford it? Sell your car and ride a bicycle. My bike cost more than your Civic though so you may not get a nice one.

    The oil companies are jacking the prices up so they can afford to clean up the mess they made in the Gulf without losing their profit margins . ~instigate~
