Gasoline prices exposed.

The Enquirer has their last installment on their gas price series.

If you ever wanted to read a provocative series of in depth reporting. Don't read this.

I remember more interesting pieces in my Weekly Reader, 35 years ago.

I'll give you the cliff notes version of the series. 1) gas is cheaper M-Th than it is F -Su. 2) gas costs more right off the interstate. 3) some stations charge less so you'll come into the store. 4) gas is cheaper at the big box stores.

And they wonder why circulation is dropping.

Next on the Enquirer agenda....

Convenience stores charge more than grocery stores for the same product!

News you can lose.
