| Mar 8, 2012 at 13:33 | comment | added | Glenn Nelson | I was always told it had to do with the fact that gas prices fluctuate so they based their price on how much they had paid for their gas and what the expected cost of the next shipment of gas would cost. That does seem to make sense, of course some people might also be price gouging. | |
