Gas was 2.81 at the membership big box store I go to. Yesterday, I went to the same gas station to top off and gas was 3.88..over a dollar a gallon. It was 3.98 just down the street. It will be over 4$ after this weekend and I’ll bet we’ll have shortages soon because lines are long now. This increase is just the tip of what we can see now and we have not even talked about food and other necessities
