martincruz88 Rookie Author California Posts:6 Points:25,045 Joined:Aug 2008	Message Posted: Oct 17, 2008 10:03:41 AM Ignore martincruz88 Report Abuse before hurricane ike hit texas in september, gas was going down 10-15 cents a week on average in southern california. prices did not go up nor did we have a supply shortage, but the reduction in prices has slowed significantly, to about 3-8 cent drop in gas on average in LA where everywhere else gas is .25-.40 cheaper now than it was a week ago. i just paid 3.22/gal at an Arco 2 miles from my house and it was 3.27 a week ago [Edited by: martincruz88 at 10/17/2008 10:06:05 AM EST]

Price gouging to the max - stations that did not even get resupplied all raised their prices to make profits. Resulting in fear fed inflated prices.
