With pump prices rising fast, a gas station under the Brooklyn Bridge took a quantum leap into outrageousness – charging a jaw-dropping $4.50 a gallon!
That’s what the Gulf Station on Old Fulton St. in Brooklyn Heights was charging credit card customers for a gallon of premium yesterday.
A gallon of regular gas was no bargain, either, at $4.14 for cash or $4.26 on plastic.
“That’s crazy,” said Mike Charles, 49, after gawking at the astronomical rates. “I’ve never seen gas prices like that before.”
