Gas Price Drumbeat: Just can't believe the difference To the editor, ColumbiaMagazine.com: Yesterday I was going to E-town. First I drove through town to check gas prices.The lowest was $3.08, most $3.09.I then went to Campbellsville. One of the stations (we have one in Columbia with same name) was $2.78. Just up the road a short distance another one with a local station of the same name, the price $2.87. In Hodgenville and E-town prices were just over $3.00. I can't imagine it costs that much more to haul gas 20 more miles.Meantime, this morning on kygas.com Prices remain $2.87, Glasgow; as well as Campbellsville, which had the the same price, $2.87. s/Gerald Doss 2007-11-05 09:18:09 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
