$6 a gallon?? What's the normal price for a gallon in monsey?

If they raised the price due to demand they could get in big trouble for price gouging.

they charged $6/gallon before they got power back, when they had 2 people manually pumping gas up from underground. From what i understand, the powers that be looked into it, and there was no issue.

I went their sunday night when they got power back already, and paid 4.15, with a 10-15 minute wait.
over the last few days, i passed multiple stations on route 59 ( going south towards the tappan zee bridge, not in the route 306 area ) and most had little or no lines at 8am.

There are still some stations without gas in monsey, and some lines, but for the most part, its a minimal hassle now, nothing like NYC

Welcome to the 1970s NYC.
Can't agree more.
Your'e pouring salt over our wounds, it feels like lighter fluid over the fire. It's incredibly sad and embarrassing.  Bloombito must go!!!

Rumor has it that Bloomberg's next rule will be to limit people waiting on line with gas canisters to 16 oz. per day!

No way! (Explore of course, but I'm not 'giving up' on nyc)  I love NYC, but we just have the wrong policymakers in office conducting our great(est) city.  Much to my dismay, I can't see any of the most popular mayoral candidates so far being any better.

-1.

This is only really tough if you can't make it to your next assigned day. Otherwise, it theoretically cuts the maximum weight time in half.

Firstly, its wait time.
Secondly, you got the wrong point, its sad and embarrassing that we even got to this point. 
As for me, I generally take the subway.
