Most of the stations around here are in the $1.90 bracket, but I noticed Shell and BP have already gone up as high as $2.15.
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Back after 9/11, some gas stations hiked their prices in STL.  People left work to fill up, and lines were long.  I didn't go get gas, but from what I heard, this is what happened.  Anyway, the gas stations got into trouble for this, in the form of monetary penalties.

Governor Deal signed an anti-gouging bill that required stations to roll their prices back to pre-pipeline break prices.  Still hasn't happened.  Many stations near me are still at $2.35 or higher.
