Largest Price increase you have seen ?

We go Hilo once a week and pay cash at the Aloha by the airport where it is 10 cents cheaper if pay with cash .

Every penny is important for us of those on fixed incomes ..
Safeway is cheaper but kills our outboard motors on our fishing boat.

Heard the price of gas in Hawaii is expected to rise even further because here in Hawaii we get the bulk of our crude oil from Russia.  Not sure if that is true or if its just oil companies jumping on the opportunity to jack up prices because of foreign wars.

Headline item from HNL Star-Advertiser:

"Much of Hawaii is powered by Russian crude oil, but no disruptions in supply are expected in light of Ukraine war"

Any petroleum price increases here will be the result of world markets, and not our previous use of Russian crude. I would post a link to the full article, but it's a pay wall item.

Average gas prices reaching $7 or even $8 per gallon will lead to biblical suffering for many Oahu residents.

No analysis, just "maybe worst-case, so we should really work from home".

I believe it will increase. Law of supply and demand says it will.   No more oil and natural gas from Russia and all of a sudden the worldwide supply drops.  Up goes demand.  

This link I was just looking at says, (at about  9:15 into it) that they are 2nd in the world for producing natural gas and oil.

Or:
* Other suppliers increase production
* National reserves are tapped
* Smart drivers in East Hawaii (and elsewhere) drive less, combine trips, buy less fuel, demand for fuel and prices fall.
