The distributors around here like to "play" with prices.
goes up a nickel, drops 2 cents, goes back up 4, drops a nickel...still averages going up...
and...10 cents difference across town at the same brand?????
Location, location, location...I guess.

Here in Canada we have "bootleg" (reduced tax) cigarettes and booze courtesy the natives........it will only be a matter of time before folks realize that gasoline/diesel can work the same way.

You need a Treaty Status card for that in Canada, but there are ways around that.

I didn't need a card, but the gas station was located on a main road so unless you were going to the casino people didn't travel down there.

I would go for the buffet.

We don't need a card in Idaho, either. However, the gas prices on the reservation aren't any lower. I need to see if the local casino offers buffets!

It was only about 5 cents cheaper. Not worth the drive off the main highway.

The midnight buffet was about $3. We would stop on the way home from Minneapolis back to southern Minnesota after an event.
