GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. -- People lined up to fill up their cars, trucks, boats, even gas cans, all because Tuesday morning at the Marathon station on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard in Buford, it was $3.79 a gallon when Channel 2 arrived.

"I'm about four miles away, so it's worth it to come here," said Ann Marie Pettit.

"Now that gas prices here are so much cheaper, in the evening, especially the weekend, even late at night during the week til 10 o'clock. There's always cars here," said David Calvert.

This is a gas war and Channel 2 got it on tape.

"Today [in the] morning, we went to $3.89, so he went to $3.87. So I went to $3.86 and he went to $3.79," said nearby Shell station owner Amin Captin.

Captin's Shell station on Buford Dam Road, just blocks from the Marathon, changed the price from $3.86 to $3.79. Not to be outdone, the Marathon station quickly lowered its price from $3.79 to $3.75. The owners have been going back and forth all day and customers are simply enjoying it.

"This weekend they both dropped down to $3.45 on Saturday. Boy, there were lines out the parking lot at both stores. We took advantage of it. It was great," said Brian Emerson.

The owner of the Marathon station did not want to comment. The Shell station owner said his competitor is new to the area and is trying to make a name for himself, but he said he will do whatever it takes to remain competitive.

"Always, whatever it takes, to the last dime," said Captin.
