Last Friday afternoon Hurricane Ike struck Texas, and sent this place into a gasoline frenzy. Gas stations were PACKED when I stopped in — I didn't have much of a choice. Their price was $4.99 per gallon when I pulled up — and they reset the price just as I was about to fuel up to $5.39. Our fair governor made a televised address that night warning stations of prosecution if they found proof of price gouging. I have my receipt ready to fax to the Attorney General's office.
