Yikes! It's bad enough to read about gas prices:
Many gas stations hit $3.45 or more Tuesday afternoon. Independent gas station owners say while the prices go up, their profits go down.
Even gas station employees are stunned by this latest hike. "About 9:15 Tuesday morning I raised the price to $3.49, and it was just a shell shock to everybody," said Independent Marathon Manager Rachel Parker.
But it was even worse having to get gas yesterday afternoon. I got $30 worth, and that only put the gauge needle on between half- and three-quarters full. If supply and demand works the way it's supposed to, I'll definitely be doing my part to keep gas from going to $4 a gallon.
