Bought 4 cases of Chevron DELO 400 15w-40 (6 gallons/case)last night.  1 1/2 years`ago I paid $32.something. 1 year ago I paid $38.99.  6 months ago i paid $42.99.  lats night I PAID $48.99.  Shit this is unreal.  I cannot raise my prices to this extent.  
Funny - there was a young 20 something guy at the door checking reciepts.  He saw my cart full of oil and said "Next time it will cost you an arm".  I told him the price story here and he said " it is only going to get worse"
I think people have a sense that it looks grim, but just like the people on Eastr Island, lets build more McMansions.

One and a half years ago, crude was about $50. Now it's about  $75. Maybe there's a connection?

duh!
