Actual Proof: Gas Prices Were Rising FAST!

| Comments (1)

Here's a classic example of just how FAST the price of gas was rising this morning!... (You won't believe this.)

First, an example of what we saw LAST night... just a few short hours before the Thursday morning rush hour traffic:

2.83 was the highest priced gas we spotted here in Nashville. It was enough to send us into 'shock & awe'... as this was also the first time we'd seen 3.00 on ANY gas station sign!Caution... No gas here! Gas stations seemed to be running out of Regular unleaded gasoline.
Most gas stations were out of Regular Unleaded gas on Wednesday night.

Recently, I decided to take a closer look at GasBuddy and see what it's REALLY all about, and how they get their data.
