Orlando Warning - Gas Prices - Suncoast Energys

This week my travels took me to Orlando, FL. I was really excited to get out of the cold weather and to get out and do a few things. What I did not expect was the gouging at a gas station "Suncoast Energys" next to the Hertz Car Rental lot.

If you go to the Orlando area you need to be aware that the gas prices at Suncaost Energys across the street from Hertz is $2 higher than gas stations about a mile down the street.

So if you are ever in Orlando just be careful to watch the fuel prices around the airport. I found the statistics above at the following web-site: http://www.orlandogasprices.com/

That's horrendous! Don't states have laws and controls that stop that! Hope Orlando was fun other than that!

Everything always seems to be higher near an airport. Why? Because they can. Like paying $3.00 for a bottle of water that anywhere (except a movie theater or sports venue) would cost $.89. Rip offs!

What did you do there in your time off?

Everything is always higher near attractions like airports. They have a captive audience that's pressed for time & can't go looking elsewhere for a better deal. At least when you travel by car you have a bit of a choice about where to take your business. Gasbuddy DOT com is a good place to check out gas prices all over the USA as you travel, especially good for planning a trip or planning where to get off the interstate to buy gas. This site will point you to more detailed sites all over the USA.
