How did the gas price at my normal gas stop go up 46 cents overnight? If there were 20,000 gallons stored in the underground tanks, that inventory just got a lot more valuable in just a few hours.

A gas station that fills it's tanks one day with fuel that it paid (as an example only) $1.00 a gallon for wholesale and is charging $1.10 a gallon retail has to raise the price when their next shipment of fuel will cost them $1.15 a gallon. If not they will lose money. It's called replacement cost.

Ron that retailer was an idiot, I'm not surprised they sent out a supervisor to spank him.
