chevysoldier Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 I have been getting these emails and they have been right every time. So I'm gonna pass them on to you all.Price hike warning! Wholesale gasoline prices rose sharply yesterday in Columbus. GasBuddy discovered that earlier today, TransCanada reported a shut down of its major pipeline that delivers crude to the Midwest. This has led to a sharp jump in wholesale prices. Be ready for a price increase to $3.95-$4.09 in the next 72 hours. Odds of the increase are 70%. Fill up for less if possible today. Thanks, The Gasbuddy Team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 how?I'm guessing KROGER points. Every $100 u spend a month in groceries you get a DIME off a gallon. Spend $200 in May he gets $3.58 price instead of $3.78 price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 And unless you have a better source than a copied email, I don't think I'm buying it.I just checked on gasbuddy.com blog, no mention of this. How much you wanna bet that if I google TransCanada pipeline it'll turn up not-so-credible links? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 http://www.google.com/hostednews/canadianpress/article/ALeqM5it6ZEOn_EPe-i5KYkc2fPwsW9qqA?docId=7006403The more recent leak spilled only a about 10 barrels of oil, although TransCanada had originally said Tuesday that as many as 40 barrels were released onto the pump station's property."Unfortunately, on this weekend (in Kansas), it was a half-inch fitting — a different type of fitting — that broke, resulting in some crude oil being released onto our property," said TransCanada spokesman Terry Cunha.Keystone normally carries between 400,000 and 450,000 barrels per day of Alberta crude to refineries in Illinois and a major storage hub in Oklahoma. It has capacity to carry 591,000 barrels per day."We don't expect (the disruption) to have any impact on our ability to deliver for our customers," Cunha said.
