The prices go up before he gets a delivery because the NEXT tanker of gas
will go up before he gets it and he has to have the money to buy it...(once
owned a gas station).

Yes fine great, makes perfect sense about you charge me more, I pass it
along to my customers.

But what I want to know is why does the price go up if they don't get
deliveries? The place I fill up gets filled up every 3 days. But the
price went up 4 times in those 3 days.

The pricing on the signing changes weekly because the pricing on the
stations Billing from the gas company changes weekly.

A friend that owns a Sunoco station where I buy my fuel showed me how it
works.........

He adjusts the pricing directly according to price he gets for a gallon
of
gas.....

If they raise it on him by .03, or .10 or whatever amount he adjusts the
pricing
accordingly........

The tax that's charged is posted on the pumps and is broken down and
listed
along with the amount of tax for each line...........that part of the
fuel
prices hasn't changed in months here.
