Great journalism from @lydiadepillis @nytimes covering convenience stores and how prices are established.
I especially appreciated how well she articulated the dynamics between branded vs unbranded and large bs smaller operators.
Worth a read if you want to some background on the c-store industry.

Today from me: How do gas stations actually set prices at times like these? Sometimes with sophisticated software, sometimes with magnets. nytimes.com/2026/04/20/busin…

Thank you, Mr. President, for supporting Main Street and its customers. We now need Congress to pass the Credit Card Competition Act.
@RogerMarshallMD
Everyone should support great Republican Senator Roger Marshall’s Credit Card Competition Act, in order to stop the out of control Swipe Fee ripoff. Roger is a FANTASTIC Senator!!! President DJT

Eighty years ago a one-cent change in the price of gas was a big jump, and fuels dispensers were able to measure precise volumes. Intense price competition, plus some regulation, institutionalized the practice. Today, anything other than 0.9 cent pricing is unusual in the United States.
