nope, South Carolina... Had to wait 30 minutes in line with a $20 limit... all grades sold out except premium... it is because of the texas refinery shutdown in advance of the hurricane...  Time to build many many new refineries!

What's wrong with you? I never run out of gas, to my wife's eternal dismay.  :rock   :D

The prices here in South GA have went up 50cents in the last 5 hours.  Most places are out of REG. Plus, and only have Premium left.

Premium is 4.30 gal.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Can you pump your own gas there yet? Or does the attendant still have to do it by law?
