I've seen such variations in my town in the last few months--never, ever saw that before. Have seen $.20-$.40 difference and yet, I didn't notice people flocking to those stations with lower the lower cost.
Do you live in a big city? Around here, if a place drops their price a penny or two below the others, people are lined up there, and fewer people are at the other places. Then the other places drop theirs to match. In the town I grew up in, gas was the same price at all the convenience stores. The full-service gas stations were always higher.
I live in an assho leftist town in western Mass. I totally get what you're saying and agree with it but what I see here goes against what I expect and have seen at other times.
