Stewartstown Rutters: $2.65 today and for the past month roughly
Tom’s Shrewsbury: $2.75 today and for the past month roughly

Hanover Rutters: $2.45 today and for the past month roughly
Hanover Toms: $2.49 today and for the past month roughly

Assuming same supplier and over a one month consistent price, why the difference? Makes you wonder about price gouging sometimes.

My understanding is that pricing is based on average area income.

If that’s the case, they are certainly helping ours go down.

I think it must go by the traffic in the area.  Rutters in Fawn Grove is always higher.  The regular gas price drops, but diesel is always higher and does not seem to ever come down.  I guess if you have the market cornered you can charge what you want.
