Web page still hasn't been updated, but my local stations have all raised their prices, so I guess it is a Christmas gift for "Big Oil".

After agreeing for a week or two, the C-H dart says we will pay one cent less after midnight tonight, while the CBC dart landed on 'no change'. Both claim to be using the same formula as the URB. Really?

Typically, they will stay there for two or three days, then align with the price charged in the nearby areas. Shows a great deal of respect for their customers. NOT.

Their gas prices rose to the maximum last night. So, instead of 'no change' Berwick finds itself in an "Up 1.7 cents" situation. It'll probably drop back sometime next week.
