The station owner can set whatever price he or she wants. It's called a free market economy.

I agree. The way it works is a simple phone call. If corporate calls they raise it or lower it.

Welcome to the corporate world of greed and consumer f-ing !
You just keep bending over and we'll keep ramming it to you !
Oh and without the Vaseline, that's a petroleum product too and we'd have to charge you extra for it !
