Billings Gas Prices Appear to Be Going Up
Have you noticed the jump in price at the gas pump?
How could you not, unless you don t drive or live under a rock. I mentioned this a few weeks ago when I traveled to the Hi-line to visit my family. Roughly two and a half weeks ago I paid $2.19 a gallon for regular unleaded. Just last week when I filled up I paid $2.34 a gallon, and today, as I was driving home I noticed that it has jumped to $2.39 a gallon for regular unleaded. Let s not even talk about the price of diesel and how much that s going to go up. Why the 20 plus cent increase in just a few weeks? Is there a change in the gas? Did they suddenly put gold in it and now it costs more? Is it political? Does it have anything to do with one of the many Executive orders that President Biden signed?
