When we first got Sheetz here over 20 years ago their #1 goal at the time..


Was to put every other gas station out of business. It wasn't out of the ordinary for me to drive by mom and pop and they would be $2 and Sheetz would be $1.35. Kroger gas stations started popping up not to long afterwards and they wouldn't be as cheap as Sheetz but within 10 to 15 cents. I remember reading somewhere they changed how the pricing structure was set in VA and basically it was called the Sheetz rule or something to that effect.
