i drove past the gas station and it was a 3.0x, i only used about a quarter tank at this point. I come back the next week or the one after and it was now 3.2x or 3.3x

I do recommend running tanks near empty regardless of what prices are doing. Fuel expenditures average out over time whether you make many small purchases, or less frequent full tank fills.
By making less frequent stops at the station, you spend less time at the pump and waste less fuel driving to the station and waiting in long lines for a pump to become available.
However, I am considering a bulk diesel purchase before those prices spike too high. I can store about 500 gallons at my parents house.
