Also, Clemmons exit off 421, actually oneither isde of the bridge it is cheap. I think the other one is Exxon-711, with same price as Kangeroo Shell (?). What a rip off in Yadkinville. But really, how can the clerks help it? They are just working for someone else. They can't set the prices. Unless I'm missing something here.

you are correct underdog. they all keep up with each other on prices. Nature..I filled up at the Quality mart in clemmons ($3.48) since i was in that area today. When I got back to the yadkinville exit all 5 stations were 3.58 and 3.59.

All it would take is one station to lower prices and two things would happen. They would have lines at their gas pumps and the others would run out and change their prices. The clerks are lying that they have no control. If one goes up a penny they run out and raise theirs a penny.

Sadly, there is little to nothing we can do about the gas prices in Yadkin county. Any complaints are useless since the clerks have no control over what the companies charge for their gas. As others have posted, I buy my gas anywhere other than Yadkin county!

make--double, I'm with you. Unless it's on fumes, no buying gas in Yadkinville. Whenever I am by these towns with cheaper prices, that is where I will stop. And the Clemmons exit off 421 (Kangeroo Shell?) was still good today at $3.49.

I checked gas buddy. Mocksville and Elkin are showing Prices of $3.42-$3.44. Yadkinville is showing Prices of $3.58-$3.59. I did a little Research and found out that the Price gouging law only applies to disaster/storm areas. the regular daily price of gas is not regulated. I was at Sheetz the day they opened in Yadkinville. I saw the station across the road drop their gas price 10 cents within 10 minutes of sheetz opening. as long as people continue to pay the high prices they will gladly keep taking the money. They will not get mine. I work in Elkin and Mocksville several times per week and will bypass Yadkinville.

adge, right. Mocksville, also. And yep, Clemmons. Glad it is on the way home from work. Yadkinville is awful for gas prices. Don't know how they all stay in business.

From the listed prices in Elkin this morning there is more than a 20 per gallon difference. This is against the law. Notice the sheetz price.
Whats different is the station owners in Elkin wont give in to sheetz and raise their prices. Obviously they did in Yadkinville.

Right, Underdog. Any direction from Yadkinville is cheaper, especially Jonesville/Elkin. Don't know what it is about all those stations bunched up with very high prices right in Yadkinville..

Do you think the yadkin ripple has a paper boy with the balls to do a story? Interview some station managers and ask them why their gas is so much higher. Maybe call the attorney generals office.

I was through your fair county and Yadkinville yesterday and I was appalled to see just what I have been saying for over a year. Where ever a shetz lands the gas prices sky rocket. 3.64 yesterday up and down the street. Anywhere else gas is 3.44-3.49. Go to gas buddy.com and look at Elkins prices. Its even cheaper in Boone. 3.53 yesterday.
