Just because the price of diesel fuel went from 311.9 this morning at Colborns in Mora to 334.9 this afternoon doesn’t mean a thing. Just because it’s a big travel week with Christmas is just a conincedence. Really, it means nothing. 
Depends on when they purchased it

sorry bud……i’m with dutchy on this one!!!!!
seems to happen every big travel holiday!!!!!
I agree!! north to south in Alex today was 20 cents different in gas.. all BS
Well, I’m not always right. I do have 2 x-wives 
I think a lot of the price jumping is software anticipating the market and shifting prices. Software exists that can listen to you talking about a thing, anticipate sales and adjust the price. Like you talk about bowling and later that day facebook is advertising bowling alley’s in your feed.
I’m sure wholesale prices are going up for the holidays so the retail price follows. Don’t blame the little independent station. The mega chains like KT, Casey’s, Holidays, etc. They set the price. 
I find my most stable prices and generally cheaper at the small station in st Stephen. Actually it’s almost always cheaper I cannot remember when it was higher even by a penny.
If a station buys fuel today and the price jumped 10 cents they jack the price up. That gas isn’t in their tanks yet. If the price drops 10 cents they hold the price steady.
