Just boycott one company at a time while still buying gas from the others.

Make sure that you shop at the convenience store, they are nice people and they don't make but a couple of pennies of profit on the gas, they want you to buy other stuff in reality. Go buy some food or something from them and inform them you refuse to buy gas from the big oil company in particular.

We can do it. It won't inconvenience us much at all, just drive to a different company's gas station.

It's not hard, yet it will make that one particular oil company feel the pinch.

What do you think? Maybe we could get an e-mail campaign going to start this. We can demand that the price of gas be lowered by that company and until it is lowered we will refuse to buy the gas.
