I was in Mississippi yesterday and actually purchased gas at a Shell station for $3.41/gallon. The same truck/company that delivers to that station also delivers to the stations across the state line in Alabama, just 19 miles away. Those stations sell their gas for $3.61 and some for $3.71/gallon although it was delivered by the same truck on the same day. It is nothing but price gouging and every holiday or special event that happens in this area, there is a notice in the local newspaper warning the gas stations about the penalty for price gouging.
