  1. It really depends on where they are at on inventory when the prices rise and fall. If you filled your diesel tanks to the rim and next day it goes up 80 cents per gallon in cost, you raise your price to stay competitive with the market, then turnover that inventory in a day or two, you are golden. If you were empty and forced to buy some on the day when it rose 80 cents, then the next day it drops 50 cents per gallon you are screwed.
  2. While related there is no simple formula of oil price of x = street price of gas y. Look at the RBOB markets to get a starting point of what the street price will be, then add in your state/federal taxes (38 cents if you live in Texas), freight (2 to 10 cents), and margin for the gas station itself and that will get you in the ballpark for the street price. Last week was pretty wild. Most gas stations had to rise their prices pretty rapidly to account for increase in prices on the RBOB market. If you didn't raise your price to keep up with competition then the store's inventory would get depleted rapidly to the point of running out of fuel to sell. You would then lose out on inside sales where they really make good margin. Also for the smaller mom and pop type of places they would need to raise price to have cash on hand to pay for the next delivery of more expensive fuel.
  3. he has been shit since signing the last contract. if he fucking one of Jerry's granddaughters or something?
  4. good job to everyone who bet the 1st period over tonight
  5. until Russia releases her I refuse to watch another WNBA game
  6. fun stuff the past 2 days on the rbob and ulsd markets
  7. I wouldn't say that government regulations allowed mergers so that only 4 companies ruled the meat packing industry, more like government regulations forced them to merge. And now the big 4 are reaping the benefits.
  8. he has the worst +/- on the team at -16 in a contract year. trade him yesterday.
  9. I guess it belongs here since no more motorcycles run at Pikes Peak anymore, but the official entry list came out today. Highlights for me are Rod Millen coming back with his 1000HP Tacoma, Mike Whiddett in a 1200 HP Mazda with a four rotor engine, and J.R Hildebrand entering a Dallara Indycar
  10. Too many players on this list overpaid for past performance, leading to not enough money for skill and depth at other positions.
  11. and this is why the mask mandates on planes won't end for a while. the union for these lazy fucks has too much power and if they started serving drinks then the sky waitresses will actually have to start doing work again. they are the ultimate Karens on a power trip
  12. I am not the biggest Dak fan in the world, but his footwork and balance has been off ever since his calf injury this past season. If he can fix that during the offseason then great, if not then it is destination fucked next year.
  13. Buffalo exorcising some demons from the past 20 years tonight
  14. One the guys at work drives for Uber as a side hustle. Said he was on the northside of Austin the other night and saw a massive HEB that was bigger than any grocery store he had seen in his life but the parking lot was empty so it wasn't open yet. We had him show us the location on google maps and figured out he drove past the HEB center in Cedar Park. Fucking moron.
  15. goddamn that was an absolute butffucking by the refs at the end of the game
  16. "well he just had Covid the last week of the regular season, no way he can have it again in week 1 of the playoffs" or something like that
  17. 7. isn't Waco. That would be like something happening in Pflugerville and attributing it to Austin I'll add the complete cult-like obsession people have with the Fixer Upper people and how it somehow turned Waco into a tourist destination
