    I was driving back to work from lunch with some friends and noticed a gas station employee changing the prices on the sign out front. The one he was in the process of changing was for Diesel.

    From $2.89 to $4.19.

    I was all :eek: ???

    I'm not sure if he had put up the wrong number by accident and maybe caught the mistake once we were down the road. Anyone else noticed such a sharp rise around your neighborhoods? I checked out every station on I-10 on the way back and didn't see anyone over $3 for regular unleaded.

    Edit- One of our freight consolidators just called with news of another station over $4 somewhere on the east side of Harris county. Insane.

    In Dallas, it was $3.20 - $3.50...I haven't filled up since b/f Rita and I paid around $2.60 - $2.80...My g/f just filled and she was like holy sh*t... :eek:

    The hurricane didn't hit Houston, but still caused a run up on prices/shortages...
