Let me add a little 'fuel' to this dumpster fire.
Gas prices don't only fluctuate due to supply and demand. Here in Texas we are served up a summer blend and a winter blend. The winter blend is noticably cheaper.
Now...you would think that if people will pay X amount to put gas in their cars in the summer because they have places to go they would continue to put gas in their cars in the winter and would pay the higher summer blend price if that's what was charged at the pump.
Interestingly, a lot of people aren't even aware of that price change reason...seems to come every year along with the spring forward, fall back DST thing.
