UNREAL: Gas in Virginia Hit $7 A GALLON Earlier This Week
Gas in the state of Virginia hit an astonishing $7 a gallon this week.
The whopping price tag came after Virginia Governor Ralph Northam declared a state of emergency following the Colonial Pipeline ransom cyberattack.
8 News reporter Laura Perrot posted photos on Twitter from a BP gas station in Richmond where gas was $6.99 for 87 octane fuel. She noted that the price was not advertised until you made it to the pump.
$6.99/gallon. That’s how much the @bp_plc gas station at Williamsburg Rd & Parker St is charging for 87 octane fuel. The price isn’t being advertised until you get to the pump. Some drivers are leaving- saying it’s price gouging. Others are filling up anyways.
