ProfDude Champion Author Illinois Posts:2,205 Points:449,310 Joined:Jan 2012	Message Posted: Mar 9, 2013 12:07:20 AM Ignore ProfDude Report Abuse Just today - temporarily closed a Marathon in the MSL in Wheaton, Illinois on Route 38. About a month ago - temporarily closed an unbranded station in Carbondale, Illinois (other end of the state) and it has not yet reopened. Over the past few months - also temporarily closed Marathon stations in the MSL along I-57 that look like they had been closed awhile - one in Gilman, Illinois and one in Ina (200 miles apart).

I don't understand why because this station was busy all of the time and kept a BP up the street in line with pricing. Now the BP is running rampant with his prices with no competition nearby.
