I worked at a gas station during college, and I’m sure mine was an uncommon one (it was run/owned by idiots) but the way we determined when/how we changed our gas prices was when the gas station .5 mile down the road adjusted theirs. We always went a penny less. Every morning, we called them, asked what their price was, adjusted ours if needed. Never made sense to me. We also got our fuel refills about once a week. Sometimes twice, depends on the season. Not sure how they operate today though, this was almost 20 years ago.

Different markets operate differently but in general it’s almost always driven by the guy who has the lowest price. Some will let a guy have a penny or two if he isn’t a risk. 20 years ago if you were a penny or two less consumers would drive a mile out of the way to you. Nowadays the consumer is more driven to the in store convenience. Casey’s pizza is more important to their brand than gas.
What makes Nebraska different than states like California is many still operate on a fixed “cents” per gallon. When I was in business it was around 8 cents per gallon and was just the start of credit card use. Maybe 25% was credit card. Now it all is. Many are still trying to set it at 8 cents above credit card use. Lincoln much higher. That’s a different topic on why. Some states, such as California set prices on a % basis. So if gas is $5 a gallon they are making more cents per gallon than if it was $4.

Christ's grace alone determines salvation. There is nothing you can do or say as a dumb@ss human that gets you to heaven. Talmudic jews who believe Jesus is boiling in human excrement obviously are not apart of the chosen. Predestination is the truth.

Well, if Jews are going to hell, you'd best start befriending them, because you definitely give off the vibe of someone who is going to be joining them. There's nothing that you can do or say as a human that gets you to heaven? That's good stuff. Your thinking is, if you believe that Jesus is the son of God, then you're in, and if you don't, you're out?

The longer Trump's war goes on, the more it will resemble Putin's mistakes.

It appears our War Dept may have underestimated Iranian capabilities.

I have read it cover to cover. And you are ignorant, hateful, blasphemous and uneducated

Romans 11:25-29

25 For I do not want you, brothers and sisters, to be uninformed of this mystery —so that you will not be (ignorant) in your own estimation—that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in; 26 and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written:

“The Deliverer will come from Zion,
He will remove ungodliness from Jacob.”
27 “This is [a]My covenant with them,
When I take away their sins.”

28 In relation to the gospel they (Jews) are enemies on your account, but in relation to God’s choice they are beloved on account of the fathers;29 for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.

*****

another version reads:

From your point of view as you hear and embrace the good news of the Message, it looks like the Jews are God’s enemies. But looked at from the long-range perspective of God’s overall purpose, they remain God’s oldest friends. God’s gifts and God’s call are under full warranty—never canceled, never rescinded.

“….all Israel will be saved.”

Those before Jesus.

Not those afterwards.

Denying the holy spirit is an unforgivable sin.
