Thumbs up Old Fashioned Gas War

Recently an old gas station around the corner re-opened in Clinton. Gator Creek Farms opened it, next door to their vegetable stand.
The price has been remarkably low since they opened up an when asked why, they said "to start an old fashioned Gas War".
Meantime the Mobil station less than a 1/2 mile away has dropped their price from $4.34 to $4.07 an still seems to be able to stay open.
The Shell station 1/2 mil the other way has not been as smart and remains at $4.35 however they do have cobwebs on the pumps now.
The little mom/pop Gator Gas is selling gas for $4.07/gallon and $.05 off per gallon with cash purchase.
Only wish they had pumps on the water too!
