As gas prices decline in New Jersey, can a Freedom Fuel Network deliver even lower prices?

President Donald Trump announced on June 30 that the network would lower gas prices at Philadelphia-area gas stations, which include five New Jersey gas stations, Fox Business reported.

...........................
Trump said that Freedom Fuel Network is “taking the lead” and urged other gas retailers to follow.

The Freedom Fuel Network website shows three participating stations in Atlantic County, one in Burlington County and another in Camden County.

The website proclaims “your savings begin here” but doesn’t have much more information. It only lists gas stations by location with a link to a map and individual stations’ addresses. No brand names or prices are shown...............................

This is the first I have heard of it.
Maybe it will help some folks. More power to them.

25 gas stations out of 120,000 in the US.

This is Trump’s entire con in a nutshell:
Try to fix a problem that isn’t a problem.
Make it a problem.
Deny you made it a problem.
“Fix” the problem with propaganda instead of a solution.
Make the problem worse.

1. GasBuddy is nationwide and has a discount card

Not much room to drop prices in gasoline ... they make 20-30 cents a gallon, or so I read somewhere. No incentive to sell at breakeven ...

2. I understood that they basically sold at cost + tax

Gas stations are counting on you coming inside and buying something, anything

3. Great, a Trump phone and Gold Sneaks, please

This is SJ area, I bet this was put in motion at his Wildwood NJ rallies a few months back

Station owners are probably former caravaners from 2020

5. This was in New Jersey and they pumped their own gas?

Did something change?

6. At some point it did

Self-pump is an option in NJ, i think at discretion of the station.

7. Notice how he's not asking the big oil companies to dip into their overcharged profits?

He's making the retailers eat the loss.

8. Well, AFAIC, here's your first clue...

No brand names or prices are shown...............................

9. They're using Russian gas left unburned when the tanker was hit by Ukrainian drone.

A few pieces of metal in it but your fuel filter will catch them.
