How Much Did You Pay For Gas Today?

[BEST45CAL]

I paid $3.07/gallon at the Safeway off of I-5 and 205. 9/1/05.

It was $2.89 yesterday.:hissyfit:

[Pendragon_6]

$3.17 for hi-test.

(Mustang won't run on regular.)

30 miles NW of Pittsburgh, Pa.

Not too far north of here are two refineries in Oil City, Pa.

They mostly refine motor oil, not gasoline.

[Gordy]

$2.999 for BP Silver this morning.

[MSGT]

$3.00 reg today
$2.69 yesterday
Orange County Ca.

[TechnoPrincess]

I paid $2.79 on Tuesday and my husband just paid $3.19

[ConservativeYouthMovement]

Anywhere from 2.929-2.999 for regular, 2 cents less for ethanol 'enriched', 3.099 for premium.

Rapid city South Dakota.

[Naturalized-Texan]

$2.829 today near Houston.

[Beowulf]

$2.84 at the Hess station in Manchester, NH.
The next best I found anywhere in town was $2.99.

[CzechPrince]

2.99 here in Charlottesville, but it went up again today to about 3.17:flushlib.

[Peachdiane]

$3.29 in IL

Gas Buddy (http://www.gasbuddy.com/) supposedly helps one find the cheapest local gas. I've not tried it yet though...

[BarryC]

In this part of New Jersey we always had low prices. I heard they were some of the lowest in the country.
About 3 days ago I paid about $2.499 or so, give or take. My brother just told me all the Wawa's around here have it at $3.099 or $3.079. Something like that.
These prices are for regular. That's all I buy.
I drive a beat up Ford pickup with a real carburetor in it.

[Beowulf]

We had one station owner assaulted here in Manchester today by an angry customer. No, I didn't do it. This isn't the first case nor will it be the last.

[JonECat]

I filled up with 87 octane when it was still 2.87, now it's $3.09

[aaron11]

87 octane went from $2.89 to $3.11 from the time i started pumping until i was finished~
When i came back through town it was $3.25~ What is really strange is we live next to an Indian reservation, The Seneca's and even with out taxes, their prices are now the same as off res' gas stations~ They are usualy 20 cents a gallon cheaper. whats up with that~?

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

It's pretty bad in my little slice of Florida -- I left this morning to search out supplies and so forth for my friend who lost everything in the hurricane. The gas station that is the cheapest here, Kangaroo, was selling regular for $2.65 when I went by around 9am. This afternoon on my way back from town, the SAME station HAD NO GAS. All the stations around, had not gas. Signs had been changed, and had been left at the last known price before the pumps ran dry -- $2.89 for regular. They didn't bother to change the signs because there WAS no gas.

We had to leave to go back out because of my nephew's birthday party (which should have been cancelled so we didn't have to DRIVE, but that's a different story). I HAD to get gas, we actually DID get it at one of the last $2.89 stations in Gainesville (we paid $37.16 for only 13 gallons) , but it already had bags on some of the pumps indicating they were running out of gas.

On the talk radio station I listen to, the DJ's were urging people not to panic, but my son said that when he was leaving work, at all the stations along his route home were people lined up with cars, boats, ATV's filling up with gasoline, so it was no wonder there was little to no gas when we came back through this evening. My husband drives through 50 red lights on his way to work (one way!), about 40 miles. If gas continues to climb in price, I simply don't know what we are going to do. http://www.freeconservatives.com/vb/images/icons/icon9.gif

[Longhorn_Platinum]

:unsmile: $2.959 for regular, $3.059 for midgrade, $3.159 for premium. This is in the Texas panhandle.

[cerberus]

$2.59 on base. 10 gal/person limit.

[Melz]

I didn't pay for it today, i paid for it 2 days ago at 2.49 because that was the day crude oil went above $70 per gallon. Apparently the gas stations took an entire 8 hours to raise prices after that. 8 whole hours!! Of course, we should assume that consumption went up that much in 8 hours and also productivity went down as well in 8 hours. That is not the case, but the threat of that happening soon is good enough for these folks!

still $3.19 here. I will run out of gas on Saturday. You can bet it will not be down, but it will be up. Labor day weekend is also a reason to price gouge !!!

[Aric2000]

WOW, here in Seattle, I payed 2.619 for regular at the Fred Meyer, 3 miles down the road, another Fred Meyer was at 2.759.

This is gonna hurt, and I mean BAD...

Hopefully the EPA's announcement will get gas to where it needs to go.

ALL EPA regs are cancelled until Sept 15th, and I think that they had better extend it.

[Teenager]

Right now, it's $2.99 a gallon. But some places are charging to up to $3.19.

[ThomasMore]

Milwaukee has a predominantly poor, minority population.

Station owners there are complaining about a huge increase in drive-offs.

[RayChuang]

I paid US$2.99-9/10 per gallon for regular unleaded yesterday. What's interesting is that California could--ironically!!--end up with the cheapest gasoline in the USA because all the refineries in the state are back up again and California gets most of its crude oil for its refineries from Alaska and California's own oilfields. California refineries do get oil from a few other places but only in relatively small amounts due to the enormous transportation costs of shipping the oil by tanker to California (people forget running tanker ships for long distances costs big money).

[Marcster]

8/29/05 -- $2.42/gallon
8/30/05 -- $2.55/gallon
8/31/05 -- $2.79/gallon
9/1/05 -- $2.99/gallon
This morning -- $3.19/gallon (w/one station charging $3.39 for mid-grade & $3.59 for premium)

$.77 (31%) in 4 days!

Not to cause more panic, but one station my wife passes on her way to work only had premium -- sold out of the lower 2 grades...

Barry what part of Jersey you from? I'm from the shore and my father still has a gas station up there.

Try pre-paying all purchases. That's how we fixed that problem in the Northeast.

[Incident_command]

2.99 a gallon.

[Rink]

Last I saw (which was yesterday) I paid $3.09/gallon reg unleaded, and paid $37.10 to fill up my tank.

May get the jugs out and fill them up too here soon before it goes up anymore.

One interesting question, how high has kerosene gone???

Just a curiousity.

[Pendragon_6]

I heard on FOX that the station owners are raising prices on gasoline that they paid for before the hurricane. This is price-gouging at it's worst.

[Naturalized-Texan]

I heard on FOX that the station owners are raising prices on gasoline that they paid for before the hurricane. This is price-gouging at it's worst.
Not necessarily. Station owners must base their prices at least partially on replacement costs, not on the price they paid for the gas. If they didn't do that, they wouldn't be able to purchase gas to replace what they are selling. Remember, the average wholesale price of gasoline is nearly $2.50 per gallon, so when the station owner tacks on the taxes, overhead, and some profit, it's easy to see how gas could be in the $3.00 range.

[BarryC]

I'm in Atlantic County. I'm about a half hour drive inland from Atlantic City.
I believe it was aproximately 3 years ago that the price dipped below 90 cents for regular at our lowest priced stations.
In this township we have a gas station on the highway. It and all the stations in Hammonton, further West, were always the cheapest. In more recent years we got a Wawa a little east of here which is now priced similarly to those stations. Now the no-brand station in Egg Harbor City, 2 miles east of here, is usually priced similarly to the Wawas. But once in a while the Exxon that is catty-cornered from it is cheap too.
I'm afraid to see what the prices are at now. My tank is nearly full. I won't need gas till the middle of next week.
Barry
Barry what part of Jersey you from? I'm from the shore and my father still has a gas station up there.

[BarryC]

Holy mackeral! $3.459!! I just saw this 5 minutes ago at the Exxon in town. I'm in shock. Of course the Wawa could be lower, even a lot lower, but it's too far away to go look. Last Wednesday or so I got gas at the Wawa. I'm pretty sure it was $2.499.
Are they out of their freakin' minds? How can they do that? I don't care about crude oil futures and all that. Raising the price a whole dollar when it was already high to begin with is just plain wrong. It's immoral.
How do they expect people to afford heat in their houses this coming winter, or even to afford to go back and forth to work? This is just outrageous.
I was just reading in a news article about how gas prices should go down, and they mentioned prices in and near New York City. Those prices are below $3.00. Unreal. Here's the article:
http://www.newsday.com/news/yahoo/ny-bzoil034409527sep03,0,1687705.story?coll=ny-newsaol-headlines
Oh, and all prices I mention are for regular, 87 octane.

[Jim Sentry]

3.19 reg/3.39 prem, some crook in downtown Atlanta charging 5.89 reg/6.09 prem.

The Governor is eliminating the State gas tax effective today for 30 days.

Any other states doing this?

[BEST45CAL]

Seems like Shell has the lowest price for gas in San Joaquin county, stuck at $2.87/gal.

[Jim Sentry]

Woodstock, GA. The Screwing has begun. QT had no Gas, BP/Amoco had no Gas.

Phillips 66 had reg for 3.19/9, with a $10 maxmum purchase.

And, this is the price after the Governor eliminated state gas taxes for September.

[BarryC]

$10 max? How do they expect you to get around on 2½ gallons of gas?
Speaking of Georgia, in 1994 my family had to take a trip in May of that year for two college graduations, one in SC and one in FL. The lowest gas price I saw on the whole trip was in Commerce, GA. I believe it was $.827 for regular, about 5 cents cheaper than here in Southern NJ.

[TechnoPrincess]

2.99 a gallon...

That's not much higher than it was before Katrina

[Geoffrey20005]

$3.23/gallon.... two stations are closed out of about... 5 or 6. Last time I saw gas for only $2.99 a gallon was two years ago, during the cheap time.

-Geoffrey

[Marcster]

Gas is "down" to $3.19/gallon here in S-East PA, down from a high of $3.39 in some places.

[BarryC]

Ours went down a little. The Exxon which I was so apalled at, at $3.459,
is now 20 cents lower. The Wawa is at $3.199. And I've been told of a station in another town where it's been holding at $3.129. That's where I will buy gas today after work. It's closer than the Wawa even though it's in the opposite direction.
I still think it's all a crime, what they've done with the prices.

[Beowulf]

I refuse to buy gas at Exxon or Mobil as they mark it way more than anyone else, on average of 15 cents/gallon higher around here.

[Marcster]

Wowie Zowie! -- filled up today for $2.99/gallon! Nice to see the price below $3 again!

The Mobil station across the street was $3.19/gallon, and had two people filling up! Guess they either had a Mobil card or didn't feel the need to drive across the street to save $.20/gallon!

[BarryC]

Yesterday, October15, I paid $2.479 for regular. 15 minutes later I found a station that was selling it at $2.299. I was shocked, and a little ticked off that I didn't wait before buying. Oh well.

[BEST45CAL]

damn good prices...for now. i wish they would get lower here. we're still hoving at $2.89/gal.

[BarryC]

It still keeps going down. But I haven't been near the station where it was $2.299 since the weekend. I wouldn't be surprised if it's down even lower now. It's down in Cumberland County, where the prices are even lower than here, and our prices are low to begin with.

[Teenager]

I filled up at $2.79 a gallon at 7:30 this morning. At 4:30 I realized I should've waited, cuz prices fell to $2.59!!

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

North Central Florida
10/19/2005 - Kangarroo Store, $2.83/gallon
HOWEVER, Hurricane Wilma will soon bring a quick end to declining gas prices once again, http://www.freeconservatives.com/vb/images/icons/icon8.gif

[Longhorn_Platinum]

:moo: It's $2.49 in the Texas panhandle.

[DoctorDoom]

It averages $2.75 for regular in my area. Will the liberalosers thank Bush for the drop? They went multi-orgasmic blaming him for the increase.

[Melz]

It has been 2.55 here since Friday (before that it was around 2.64). There is some liberal creature on a forum I watch but cannot participate in any longer (typing to some of these people doesn't work and my only next resort would be an outlet I cannot persue) who has been arguing to the point of 100 posts or better that the gas companies are sticking it to the poor folks by raising prices on Fridays which are paydays. For over 100 posts, conservatives who notice this as a lie in our area, have argued that the price has gone down 3 out of 4 Fridays. She keeps pointing out how the weekend was even lower in price by 2 cents.

It has taken this stupid chick over 100 posts and she still hasn't realized that you have to consider the price BEFORE Friday to claim that the price went up. NOT the price AFTER Friday. LOL. I keep hoping she will see the light and stop responding.

Okay sorry, that is my gas story. Price has been the same here for 6 days though, I am already saving back for winter gas heat though.

[BarryC]

Today, 10/29/05, got gas for $2.199. It keeps going down. If it's that price here in Atlantic County, I'm sure I could find it in at least one place in Cumberland County for less. I can't believe I only paid $36 for a tank of gas this time.

[Longhorn_Platinum]

:moo: $2.199 here, too. $2.299 for the midgrade.

[Teenager]

$2.39 is the cheapest around. I also saw $2.59 across town.

[BEST45CAL]

We're still hovering near the $3 mark over here in the Sacto Valley. I paid $2.76/gal. yesterday evening.
:djd:

I have a 20 gallon tank. I usually fill up with about 1.5-2.0 gallons remaining.

I can drive about 400+ miles/tank.

[Rink]

In my town its $2.59/gal reg unleaded, in Hood River the Union 76 gas station is asking $2.71/gal reg unleaded.

Cascade Locks OR is bout the same as my town $2.59.

In town (Vancouver last I saw it was $2.37/reg unleaded, thats at an Arco gas station cheapest you'll find).

[Jim Sentry]

Prices won't be reasonable until we see 1.19 for reg and 1.59 for premium. TOPS

[CzechPrince]

Down to about 2.20!

[BEST45CAL]

Prices won't be reasonable until we see 1.19 for reg and 1.59 for premium. TOPS

I got my fingers crossed, hoping for $1.00/gal. I miss the days when a $20 would fill my tank. Now it costs $50.
:djd:

[Rink]

I can fill up my so-called gas-guzzlin SUV on 20 to 30 bucks, and go 45 miles in and 45 miles back from my town to vancouver, then 33 miles east and 33 miles back home from Hood river OR on that and still have some gas left.

I must be doin SOMETHING right!

And to think the idiot plumber hadda charge a whopping $67.00 for gas on top of looking at my sink, doing a teeny bit of a job then dismantling my sink and leaving it that way and charging a nasty $180 for that little itty bitty work

I wonder what it would cost to have a REAL plumbing job done? Hundreds of thousands of dollars??

Sorry ranting abit.

[BarryC]

Wow. Now 2 days later from my last post, and the price is down another 5 cents, to $2.149 for reg. I wonder what it is down in Cumberland County, maybe below $2.109.

Even now I still can't believe it's over $2, since it got this high in such a short time. I believe it was only 3 years ago or so, when it dipped down to $.899 for a short time.
Anyway, it's looking good the way it keeps going down.
Anyone live in or near the Adirondacks of New York? I remember it being unbelievably high there back in 1981-82 when I went to Word of Life Bible Institute.
Barry

[LiberalHunter]

Up here it's anywhere from 2.28-2.59 a gal.(87grade) but heard it was going to go up rapidly.

[ErikTheRed]

$1.99 for the cheap stuff. How much longer will that last? C'MON BABY, stay CHEAP!

[midnite]

2.29 last Wedensday

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

Went on a couple of trips lately -- Hudson, Florida saw it for $2.44 Saturday 10/29; Fanning Springs, FL this evening, $2.55; locally, bought it this morning for $2.61 (reg.), as cheap as I could find it. :crazy:

[Melz]

My post just totally disappeared (first time that has happened)

Anyway, I paid $2.14 today after getting a 10 cent discount per gallon at the Kroger's gas station. I get to do that for every $100 I spend a month. So I should be able to do that forever and also pass my rights onto grandchildren one day!

[Large_Al]

i PAID 2.29 for reg at the shell friday I'm sure it's lower now. Barry WAWA is 2.35 in Media Pa.

[dcanner]

$2.29 to $2.45 in the Columbia, SC area

[Lazarus]

The best I've seen is $2.49 here in Alabama... We must still be feelin the effects of the storm damage on pipelines and depots...

[cerberus]

$2.38

[BarryC]

Al,
This Wawa is down another 2 cents, to $2.129.
Wawa is normally the lowest around here, except recently the no-brand guy next door to the Wawa has been keeping has at one penny below the Wawa.

i PAID 2.29 for reg at the shell friday I'm sure it's lower now. Barry WAWA is 2.35 in Media Pa.

[TechnoPrincess]

$2.21

[Rink]

Paid $2.51/gal regular unleaded.

$30.00 filled the tank.

[Naturalized-Texan]

Yesterday about noon when I was on my way to our son's house, I noticed that Wal-Mart had gas at $2.389, the cheapest around. I made a mental note to stop for gas on the way home. At 2:30PM, on my way home, the gas at the same Wal-Mart was $2.299. The price had dropped 9 cents in just 2 1/2 hours! Naturally, I filled up the tank.

[BarryC]

Yesterday when I went by the Wawa it was down to either $2.099 or $2.089 for reg.
By the time I get gas later in the week, who knows where it will be.

[Melz]

What is Wawa? Is that Walmart? Wallyworld?? Hehe

It was $2.11 yesterday. Now it is back up to $2.22. Despite what the liberal twit on the other forum I watch has said, prices consistently go down on Friday, even if just a penny. Probably just to prove the consipracy theory freaks wrong, but I find it is the best day to get gasoline.

Who plans out such gas-getting anyway?? I drive too much to actually plan it as far as pricing goes. I fill up only when I am on E.

[Beowulf]

$2.39 for regular unleaded today. Best I've been able to find.

[Rink]

Not bad, saw in gresham at the Arco station close to walmart $2.29/gal reg unleaded.

Dang thats nice.

[Longhorn_Platinum]

Longhorn_Platinum:
:moo: $2.199 here, too. $2.299 for the midgrade.

:unsmile: That was 8 days ago. No change, since then.

[BarryC]

Today, 11/6 my mom said regular is now $2.079 at the Wawa. There are now big Wawas that sell gas, for several years now.
Melz, Wawa is a convenience store, like 7/11, Cumberland Farms and so forth. I believe it was founded in a town called Wawa, PA, by a family who originated in Millville, NJ. Something like that. Here in NJ it's mostly in the south, but spreading further and further north.

[Faithful_Servant]

Not bad, saw in gresham at the Arco station close to walmart $2.29/gal reg unleaded.

Dang thats nice.
Bend/Redmond the cheapest is 2.69, drive north 30 miles to Madras and the highest is 2.57, the lowest is 2.47. The usual Central Oregon gas price gouging BS.

[Peachdiane]

Drove thru LaPorte, IN last night and filled up at $2.18!

[dajoga]

Bought Shell reg. for $2.06 today but saw at a Love's east of Little Rock it was $1.96 for reg. But here's the twist--at this Love's gas was $1.96 and diesel $2.52, but 80 miles farther east the next Love's had gas for $2.14 and diesel for $2.38. So is this Bush's fault too??

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

Thursday, November 10th

Bought regular today for $2.49 at our least expensive gas station (Kangaroo).

[BEST45CAL]

November 11, '05. $2.47/gal. N. Cal. east bay

[Rink]

Well today Nov 11th, I just gassed up my tank at $2.21/gal reg unleaded in Clackamas Oregon after getting out of class.

As it is here in my town the price of gas is $2.51/reg unleaded, gotta love the .30 cent difference.

At least my $25 out of pocket paid for the gas for a while.

[BarryC]

Yesterday November 10 it was $2.019 at the Wawa near here, and a co-worker saw it for $1.989 somewhere. This means that down in Cumberland County it is probably in the low $1.90s, maybe even lower. I was supposed to be going down that way today, but my truck won't be back from the repair shop till a little later today.

[dajoga]

$2.089 for Shell V-Power this morning---since I started using V-Power, my mini-van has increase mileage by 3 mpg--that's 75 miles more/tankfull. See you liberal-fruitcakes, I'm doin' my part. :hahaha:

[Peachdiane]

One gas station here has converted four pumps into E85 gas pumps. I see it's quite busy!

$2.19 regular here in Freeport. I filled 'er up thanks to my piggy!

[Melz]

Sheesk... V Power here is still over $2.30. But I will always go for the cheap stuff. From what I hear it is not worse on a car..right? I have asked and no one has indicated that it is bad gasoline. I buy the cheap grade from the major places like BP and such, so it shouldn't be watered down. I hope.

[Peachdiane]

What is BP's regular octane? if it's 89 then you should be alright. That's what I hear anyway. I'm sure someone will correct me, of course. ;)

[Teenager]

I saw $1.99 today!! It was like seeing a glimps of heaven!! Ain't it sad we think that's cheap?

[Melz]

I thought all "regular" was 87. Usually that is what I am putting in my tank. 89 is always medium. Hmmm. The owners manual just says "regular unleaded" and doesn't give an octane (haha I have no idea what octane really means besides those numbers).

I do hope to know if I am not getting a good deal. Usually it is 10 cents more expensive between 87 and 89. And then 10 mor cents to get to 91 (I think that is the next level).

[Peachdiane]

Citgo's "regular" is 89 here and I've heard several say that's what you want. But, what do I know? For so long we heard to use nothing but Premium and in the end it turns out it really didn't make a difference. :crazy:

[SmellyFed]

$2.35 for 87 octane in Naperville, IL today. Looks like @ $2.40 today in Rockford.

[Patriot Heart]

$1.95 in Oklahoma City yesterday.

[BarryC]

As far as I know, Regular means 87 octane almost anywhere. But Sunoco sells (or used to sell) 86. But they had about 5 or 6 grades of gas. But around here Sunoco no longer exists. Most of them were converted to Coastals I think, and some to a new company I never heard of called Lukoil.
I've been buying 87 for many years now. I gave up on 89 or higher.
By the way, some stations' premium is 91, while other's is 93 or 94. But I never buy the stuff anyway.
And our Wawa is now selling regular for $1.979, and, as usual, the no-brand station next door to it is a penny lower.
Barry
P.S. One more thing- I keep wondering why we continue to use the word unleaded, when all gas is unleaded now. You cannot buy gas with lead in it anymore. That went out with the advent of the catalytic converter.

[Peachdiane]

Wow, I guess Citgo here is a rarity with the 89 regular.

But one never really knows anymore! In Iowa, Weights & Measures Bureau of Iowa Agriculture Dept. found regular-grade gasoline in super premium tanks!

[SmellyFed]

2.19 for 87 octane in South Bend, Indiana today.

[BarryC]

Wow! As of today the lowest around here is $1.889. But the Exxon continues to sell it at $2.119.
But now, for some reason, the stations in Cumberland County are higher than around here, instead of lower.

[Peachdiane]

I pumped $2.17 for 89 octane today and then ten minutes later I saw $2.15 at another pump, same company. :biglaugh:

[MSGT]

$2.55 in Socal for reg

[Longhorn_Platinum]

:moo: I saw gas for $2/gallon in Amarillo on Saturday, on the east side of town, where all the truck stops are. Gee, with the money you save, maybe you can afford to go to The Big Texan, a couple of blocks away.

[Melz]

I got the el cheapo 87 grade for $1.97 today!!! Woohoo! No one who hates corporations or the President has mentioned gas prices in about 3 weeks..LOL. Then again, they haven't mentioned the stock market in about 1.5 weeks. Funny how good news escapes them, even if they are gaining from it!!!

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

We're getting there, down here, LOL ... Sunday afternoon coming home from church, paid $2.20/reg at the Kangaroo on that side of town!

[UnkHiram]

Paid $2.07 a gallon today. In Dallas.

[Rink]

Saw a gas station (I think is in somewhere between Gladstone, Gresham and/or Boring Oregon, I was on one of the truck driving practice today) and there was a station that had $2.12/gal reg unleaded.

[Melz]

Gas went up 15 cents between yesterday at noon and today at 5 pm. My timing was great!

[Naturalized-Texan]

Yesterday, I paid $2.039 at a Wal-Mart in Kemah, TX, and that was without the 3-cent discount for using a Wal-Mart card.

[TechnoPrincess]

$1.91

[Large_Al]

2.09 at a independent station BP Sunoco Exon is 2.19 Texico is 2.14

[Marcster]

$1.99 is the lowest around here.

[cerberus]

$2.02 Saw $2.00 briefly but didn't need to fill up at the time.

November 27, 2005. Dublin, CA. Safeway @ 680 and Dublin Blvd.

$2.26/gal.

[Naturalized-Texan]

While running some errands this morning, I passed a Conoco station with gas at $1.979 and several other stations at $1.989 - Galveston Bay area.

[BarryC]

Today, Monday 11/28, our cheapest stations now have it at $1.829 for regular. For now that's the Wawa. The no-brand guy next door to it is actually the same right now instead of a penny less, as he usually is.
The Exxon in town that was holding at $2.119 for weeks on end while everyone else went down, finally went down to $1.959. I noticed that a few days ago. Not cheap, but much less than it was.

[UnkHiram]

Gas still holding at $2.05.9 in Greenville, Texas

[nene]

$2.07, yesterday. Hope it goes down some more.

[Charity]

As of today I paid $1.93 per gallon here in Georgia. Woo Hoo

[dcanner]

woohoo! beat you all at $1.86 in Columbia, sc

[Faithful_Servant]

In Clackamas OR its now $2.09/gal reg
Sunday 11-27-05

#%&! It's still over 2.50 in my neck of the woods.

[dajoga]

I didn't need gas, but I stopped at Pilot for coffee and gas was $1.87 at Exit #84 on I-40 in Arkansas today.

[BarryC]

Well after a brief hiatus from these forums, I'm back. Last time I posted about gas prices they had been dropping by a cent or two per day.
I had thought they were going to level off where they were for a while. But suddenly they went up 6 cents over night. Then another 6 cents. Then more after that, and I couldn't keep track.
Two or three weeks ago prices were holding at $2.189 at the cheapest stations. But then suddenly I was able to find gas for $2.139 or lower.
Yesterday the lowest price I saw was $1.969, 2 cents lower than the day before. I believe it's dropping a cent or two a day now. We'll see, but it's looking good.

[Teenager]

$2.03 is the cheapest in town right now...

[USPatriot8320]

$2.32 is the cheapest around here... Man, I remember when I first got my license, gas was .89 a gallon... Those were the days LOL

[Native American]

Filled up yesterday at Sam's Club. Cost me $2.08.9 a gallon, which is still less than what Sam's charges for a gallon of milk.

[BarryC]

Funny thing is, at our Sam's Club, gas is slightly higher than at our cheapest stations. And Sam's is too far away to be practical for me anyway.

[DeclinetoState]

I remember when it was practically a national scandal that prices were $0.50/gal. Some gas stations had pumps that only went up to $0.499, so they had to halve the price displayed on the pump then charge customers double what the meter read.

[Native American]

Funny thing is, at our Sam's Club, gas is slightly higher than at our cheapest stations. And Sam's is too far away to be practical for me anyway.

Yeah, the same is true here sometimes. It varies from day to day. Some days Sam's is the cheapest, other days some of the "no-name" stations in the area are the cheapest, and are a penny or two a gallon cheaper than Sam's.

[Naturalized-Texan]

I paid $2.079 today at a Valero (formerly Diamond Shamrock) station in Texas City.

Hey NT, you said you're paying $2.08 for gasoline. What's a gallon of milk costing you these days in Texas City (wherever the hell that is) I wonder?

But of course, keep in mind, the Democrat Party continues to vote against, almost as a voting block, expanding the extraction of American oil from Alaska.

Democrats talk big, but when it comes to actually doing something to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, the Democrat Party is agin it!

The Democrat Party is a gigantic JOKE.

[Naturalized-Texan]

Hey NT, you said you're paying $2.08 for gasoline. What's a gallon of milk costing you these days in Texas City (wherever the hell that is) I wonder?
A gallon of milk costs about $3.59. Texas City is in Texas, south of Houston.

[Native American]

A gallon of milk costs about $3.59. Texas City is in Texas, south of Houston.

OK, my wife lived in Houston for a while. She said it was muggy and hot there, and that her shoes would grow mold on them in the closet. Never been there myself. Been to San Antonio a couple of times, thought it was pretty nice, at least for a city....

Milk is currently running about $2.89 a gallon in the Fort Smith, Arkansas area, which is cheaper than where you are, but still more expensive than a gallon of gas.

[BEST45CAL]

Gas here is going back up toward $2.40/gal. Paid $2.35 yesterday.

[Melz]

That being said, why is milk so expensive? I never pay attention to what i pay for it for some reason, but it was on sale for 1.99 a month ago. That is not a sale, it used to be .99.

We should start a "how much was milk" thread. The price seems to be skyrocketing!!! Is Bush now having relations with "Big Milk"

???

[BarryC]

Now our cheapest station is down to $1.949, but I believe there are a couple stations near the mall (too far away to be practical) that are cheaper. Also down in Cumberland County sometimes the gas can be cheaper.
Maybe 5 days or a week ago on the front page of the Atlantic City Press it said our gas might go up soon by 25 to 50 cents a gallon, but I never read the article.

[Longhorn_Platinum]

:moo: Today, it was $2.089 at MurphyUSA in Pampa, with a Wally World card. Of course, I don't have the card, & I get midgrade, so I paid $2.219.

[BarryC]

$1.929 today at the Wawa.

[Native American]

It dropped down to $2.069 in Fort Smith, yesterday.

[Melz]

It's up to 2.35 here. Good think I filled up yesterday at the Krogers and got the 10 cents off per gallon! Paid 2.05 last night so yay for "market timing"

It jumps around so much lately, hard to time it even.

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

I'm GOING to pay $2.32 (I hope!). I haven't actually headed to town yet, but today is payday, otherwise known as I'm-going-to-be-broke-by-the-end-of-the-day-after-I-pay-everybody day, :smirky: , and so I must be a good little "client" and pay my bills. The Kangaroo station usually has the lowest gas prices, and for the past three days it's been $2.32 -- it's on my way to pick up li'l Bubba from college, so that's where I'll get some gas before my adventure-in-bill-paying begins. I'll update this post if the price changed.

[Native American]

The Dimmies had previously tried to use the "high gas prices" as an issue to power their Bash Bush Bandwagon. Not surprisingly, not once did any of the Democrat leaders in Congress point out that government taxes account for about 50 cents on the gallon of the "high cost of gasoline".....

And, needless to say, not one single Democrat proposed the obvious solution to the "high gas price problem" - cut or eliminate those taxes.

The Democrat Party is all problems, no solutions.

[BarryC]

Just a few years before I got my license I clearly remember the prices being in the mid 50s per gallon. I remember them skyrocketing overnight soon after, during that so-called energy crisis.
But to tell you the truth, I can't remember what I was paying when I started driving regularly, on my own. That was `82 or `83. But I did keep records, and have the little books around somewhere.
Anyway, when gas was in the mid 50s per gallon in the mid 70s, what was the total tax on it back then? Does anyone know?

[Native American]

I can remember when a copy of the New York Times was 25 cents.

I can also remember when the NYT was actually worth reading.

[BarryC]

Well now it's getting ridiculous. It was going down, and down, and down. I was feeling realy good about gas prices. I thought we might possibly see the $1.60s or even the $1.50s. I guess it was just wishful thinking. A couple weeks ago I said it was down to $1.919 I think. Well it has started skyrocketing again. I got gas on Saturday or Sunday for $2.089. I think that's about as low as you can get right now.
Before they used Katrina as an excuse, but it hasn't gotten down to the pre-Katrina prices, if I remember correctly. So what's their excuse now? All these price games they are playing should be illegal.
It reminds me of the price of postage over the years (and decades). It was 3 cents from the mid 1930s all the way up to around 1958. Then it was 4 cents for another 10 years or so. Then 5, then 6, then 8 cents and so on.
Now it goes up every 2 or 3 years or so. I think the only difference between what they are doing with gas prices and what they are doing with postage prices, is that once postage has gone up, it doesn't go back down again.
But if postage was able to stay the same for 20 years or more, and then only go up by 1 penny, why did all that change to the way it is now? And why is gas the same way (only worse)?
It's all baffling. And it's wrong to put consumers through that.
Oh, sorry for my rant. I forgot myself.
By the way, the only reason I know about postage is because I've been collecting stamps for over 30 years.

Pre-Katrina the price was around $2.159.

Looks like the prices have dropped, now that the Katrina-caused oil disruptions have been (partially) corrected.

BTW, another factor at play here is that power plants have had to shift from burning coal (the biggest source of electrical power in our country) to burning natural gas and oil. And those two fuels, of course, we should reserve for our vehicles, and not waste them on producing electricity. But the Libs/Democrats generally obstruct the construction of new coal-fired power plants, even though our country has hundreds of year's worth of coal reserves.

Thanks again, Democrats. You keep doing your part to keep energy costs as high as possible for the American Worker!

Why the shift from coal to those other two fuels, you ask? Simple - the union-controlled, non-competitive rail lines have fallen into disrepair, so Wyoming coal suppliers were not able to meet their contracts to deliver coal towards the east. Democrat Party = pro-union.

Thanks again, Democrats.

The good news is, some of the needed rail line repairs have now been performed, so coal shipments are on the rise again.

The bad news is, the Democrat Party still opposes the much-needed construction of new coal and nuke power plants.

[Rhino]

$2.35 here yesterday.

[BarryC]

Well I should have kept my mouth shut on March 8 when it was around $2.089. Because a week or two ago it shot up to $2.259 overnight! This is really, really getting old! Come on! I don't think I can find it for less than $2.239 right now.
I think of this every day when I'm on the road, but forget after I get home. Just happened to remember now.

[Native American]

Bought gas for $2.349 here, day before yesterday.

[Antigone]

$2.55 today and still rising every day. I paid $2.24 just a week ago.

[BEST45CAL]

It's back up to $2.67/gal. now. Going higher everyday. Bastards.

[BarryC]

The cheapest (regular) I saw yesterday or Monday was $2.439. I just went past the cheapest gas station in town a few minutes ago and it was at $2.599!!
I don't know what the oil companies are up to, but it can't be legal. There's no way you can jack up the price by 70 or 80 cents a gallon in just a month or two. There's no way.
I think when the prices were at their highest after Katrina, the Exxon was at $3.459, but the cheapest stations were a lot less than that. I'm not sure what the Exxon is at right now. I forgot to take notice.
What really gets me is how they play games with us. They raise it to ridiculous levels, then lower it. Just when we think it's half decent, they raise it all over again. I think a month or so ago it was at $1.809 or something. I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is getting very old!

[BarryC]

Okay. Now it's getting weird. The Wawa has it for $2.519, 9 cents less than the cheapy station in town. Usually both have the same price, or even the cheapy station might be one cent below the Wawa. But now they are 9 cents higher than the Wawa. Very odd indeed.

[Longhorn_Platinum]

:unsmile: $2.799 at Allsup's, about 50 miles from Amarillo.

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

Try $2.89 here y'all (FL) ... it's getting outrageous. Of course, that was YESTERDAY'S price. I should have gotten gas then, but I detest having to get gas, and was hoping my Bubba would get it for me (false hope, http://www.freeconservatives.com/vb/images/icons/shake.gif ), which means on my way to pay all the bills today, I will have to get gas and the price has probably jumped (again). http://www.freeconservatives.com/vb/images/icons/icon8.gif

[Rhino]

$2.79 here day before yesterday. I had to fill up the truck and the gas cans for the mowers and four wheeler. I never spent $140 on gas before.

[Native American]

Paid $2.60 here yesterday.

[BEST45CAL]

Back on February 20, I paid $2.35/gal.

Now it's at $3.25/gal.

I can't believe that 90¢ increase is all taxes.

[Hogan]

regular in the Vancouver Wa area is 3.05 right now. It is not unusual when I see $100.00 on the pump from the person before me filling up (ouch!!)

[Patriot Heart]

$2.55 in Shawnee Oklahoma yesterday.

[BarryC]

For several days or even a week it was down in the $2.70s, mostly $2.779 and $2.799 at all the lowest price stations. I noticed yesterday or today that it was up to either $2.839 or $2.859 at the Coastal that I pass on my way to and from work. That's one of the lowest price stations. Funny thing though-- it was posted at that price I just mentioned, but I actually paid $2.779! (total = $51) I don't get it, but I won't complain! Very nice. I don't know what's up with the higher price being posted on the signs. That's weird.
This is Atlantic County, New Jersey, by the way.
Barry

[BarryC]

This thread hasn't been posted to in a long time. I figured I'd bring it back, now that gas prices are dropping so much.
How low is it (regular) where you are?
This past Sunday I paid $2.279 at the Wawa near here. That was the lowest I could find. Less than an hour later I was down in Cumberland County, and the Wawa there had it for $2.139! A Coastal near there also had it for that price.
Yesterday I drove past a Wawa near my work that had it for $2.139, but then I drove by the Wawa near here and it had it for $2.099. Both of these Wawas are on the same highway. Meanwhile there are 2 small no-brand stations that had it for a penny less.
Today the Wawa is down another penny, as are those two no-brand stations. So now our lowest around here is $2.079. Wow. It's starting to look almost reasonable again. Almost.

[Rhino]

$2.049 last week, then up to $2.249. $2.159 this week.

[DoctorDoom]

$2.579 today.

[Marcster]

$2.32 @ Sam's Club!

[Timberwolf]

It's been $2⁰⁷ for most of this week here...it's a rarity, but we've had the lowest prices in the state for a month.

[BarryC]

I just got a tank of gas today at the Wawa for $2.059, down another 2 cents.
But my records indicate that I was paying in the $1.90s in March, and the high $1.80s in November of last year. Previous to that I would have to look in my older gas book.
I love how it's going though.
By the way, for some reason our Sam's Club's gas prices are usually a little higher than at the Wawas. I'm a Sam's member, but I won't buy their gas, since I can get it cheaper elsewhere, and closer to home.

[BarryC]

Well the drop in prices seems to have slowed down, but I don't think it quite stopped yet.
The lowest I can find around here now is $1.939. I haven't been down to Cumberland County yet so I'm not sure if they are lower or not. Sometimes they are a lot lower.
I can live with this, but dropping another 40 or 50 cents would be nice.

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

$2.28 at our favorite station, but still $2.39 in my little town. Ship some of those below $2 prices down here, please.

[Marcster]

$2.32 @ Sam's Club!
It's down to $2.15 around here...

[Faithful_Servant]

$2.28 at our favorite station, but still $2.39 in my little town. Ship some of those below $2 prices down here, please.
2.52 is the cheapest you can find around here, Homes. What's sad is that thi sin the town where I work, th etown that I live in (30 miles south) the cheapest gas is 2.75.

[Lazarus]

Paid $2.01 yesterday at Sam's Club... On our vacation road trip last week we bought gas one time for $1.98 at one of the off-brand truckstops... Best prices I've seen in ages...

[Timberwolf]

$1⁹⁸ here...

[BEST45CAL]

Hey, Barry. Thanks for reviving this thread. I forgot about it. LOL

I paid $2.69/gal. in San Francisco yesterday.

[TechnoPrincess]

$2.12

[dPrasse]

2.15 here in Freeport ... 60 miles away it was 2.37 .... higher closer to Chicago , I guess .. or the Interstate ...

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

HAD to get gas at the station in my little town today (I kinda let it get a little to low, http://www.freeconservatives.com/vb/images/icons/icon11.gif ). Paid $2.36/gal. :sad:

[Antigone]

$2.65

[USPatriot8320]

$2.49

[Rhino]

$1.99

[BarryC]

Well it seems to have stopped dropping, and has levelled off at $1.939 for the lowest around.
I've been recording the total gallons, total price, and price per gallon at every fill-up since I started driving, although I can't find all the books right now. Last November it had dipped down to $1.889. So we didn't quite reach that.

[BEST45CAL]

$2.31 yesterday, but that was with a ten cents off per gallon credit with my Safeway club card.

[ThomasMore]

Got y'all beat. $1.47 for premium...yes, $1.47. A full tank of premium for $20.00. At the Rawson Mobil in Oak Creek, Wisconsin near the airline's headquarters.

Methinks somebody misprogrammed the pump.

I wonder if it will still be that low when I go back...

That's like a 1999 (Carmel, CA) price per gallon. WOW!

[Franko]

Paid $.01 to fill the tank last week - no I'm not kidding. Best45Cal used his Safeway Club Card - I used my Giant Eagle card at Getgo; from buying groceries at Giant Eagles using their discount card, I accumulate discounts on gas for every $50 spent. So at $1.99 a gallon at Getgo combined with having saved up to a $2.00 a gallon discount, gas was CHEAP! They have to charge something - by their rules they can't end up owing you, heh.

[Timberwolf]

It's UP to 2⁰⁴ here...had been below $2 for quite awhile.

[Timberwolf]

Franko...you suck. j/k LOL

We have GOT to get a GetGo up here...wouldn't mind being able to fill my Suburban (42 gallon tank) for a penny...that would TRULY be sweetness!!! :biggrin:

[Peachdiane]

Methinks somebody misprogrammed the pump.

Could be. It's up to $217 today. Gas Buddy (http://www.milwaukeegasprices.com/index.aspx?&area=Oak%20Creek)

Still, much cheaper than here!

[BarryC]

Well 2 days after I last posted, it started dropping again, a tiny bit at a time. Now the lowest I can find anywhere around here, at least in this county, is $1.909.
But I believe it was only 3 to 4 years ago when it was just below 90 cents. I'll have to check my gas books again.
It would be interesting to check my gas books from when I first started driving, which was sometime around 1980 or so. I can't remember what the prices were. But I remember gas pumps showing $.569 around 1975 or so, a few years before I started driving. Then they skyrocketed overnight, to well over a dollar, during that so-called gas crunch.

[BarryC]

Interesting piece of trivia- New Jersey is one of only two states that do not allow self-service gas. I think the other is Maine. When I go out of state, I find it very odd to be able to pump my own gas. I get uncomfortable because I feel like I might screw up and not know how to turn on the pump or something.
That reminds me of story where something relatively bad happened to me. I went to a general store one time to get gas, back in the mid to late 80s. They allowed you to pump your own gas, even though of course it's illegal. I pulled my car up to the pumps. As soon as the people inside saw me gab ahold of the gas nozel, they threw the switch inside. Unfortunately the last person to use the nozel didn't release the trigger lock, so when they threw the switch, gas went came out and went all over my car and the ground. What a horrible mess.

[Franko]

Timberwolf - they have a 30 gallon limit on fillups - still . . . 20 cents a gallon discount for every $50 spent.

It is illegal to fill your own tank in OREGON.

[Peachdiane]

It is illegal to fill your own tank in OREGON.

Yeah, what's up with that? Why do the citizens always vote down the right to pump their own gas?

[Timberwolf]

That's a good deal, Franko...wish we had one up here in this neck'o'dawoods

[DoctorDoom]

You realize, of course, that Bush is responsible for the falling prices so that people will vote for Republicans.

[BarryC]

As of yesterday October 20 the lowest price around here is at a Sunoco in town that has regular for $1.899, a penny or two below the Wawa and the no-brand guy in town.
Okay so Oregon is the other state that does not allow self-service. I couldn't remember. I've always lived here, so it's perfectly normal to me.

[BarryC]

Oh no! I just posted about a station selling at $1.899. Well today I drove by the Wawa where I usually buy my gas and the price was at $1.959, up 4 cents. I hope that doesn't mean that prices are on their way up again. What a bummer that would be.

[ThomasMore]

Could be. It's up to $217 today. Gas Buddy (http://www.milwaukeegasprices.com/index.aspx?&area=Oak%20Creek)

Still, much cheaper than here!

It's still a good station, but I still think the price was an error. Regular was over $2.00, and premium was $1.47. The price was lower for premium on the same pump as the regular. $2.47 for the premium would have made more sense.

[dajoga]

Paid $1.999 for Shell in Bentonville, AR and $2.009 at Russelville, AR, Exit #84. First time in a LONG time that I found gas cheaper anywhere than at Russelville. When I got to my town, it's $2.149--price gouging maybe?

[BarryC]

And the plot thickens...
As of now, a couple days later than my last post, the Sunocos and Coastals are still at $1.899, while the nearest Wawa is at $1.959, the same price as the Exxon in town, which doesn't make any sense.
Something odd is going on with Wawa.

[Rhino]

Wawa? ..... Barbwa Wawa?

$2.06 here.

[Beowulf]

$2.17/gallon today is best I found.

[Franko]

$2.01.9 in town today here in NE Ohio


Already have earned $.80 discount a gallon on next time I buy gas at Getgo.

That's what a few trips to the grocery store will do. I could buy groceries cheaper at Walmart, but have mixed feelings about shopping there (topic for another thread).

[CzechPrince]

1.99!!! Whoo hoo.

[USPatriot8320]

Grrr every time I look at this topic, I get upset.... Still paying 2.49 here grrr

[BEST45CAL]

Gas here is 2.35/gal. grrr lol

[Naturalized-Texan]

$2.049 this morning at a Sam's in the Houston area.

[LifeOfBrian]

1.99 in Mankato, MN

[Lubbock]

$2.09 at Bolton's here in Lubbock.

[Naturalized-Texan]

$1.939 this morning at a Valero station in Seabrook, TX. I think that's the least I've paid for gas in a couple of years.

[Lubbock]

I paid $1.97.9 at Bolton's yesterday.

[Antigone]

We finally managed to get down to $2.31. I was wrong in my prediction that we would never get below $2.50. :)

[CountryGent]

Nothing. I pumped diesel fuel outta my bulk tank which was filled up last October.......:D:D

[Jag Wife]

$2.13 in Charlotte, NC. It's under $2.00 over the line in SC, which has much lower gas taxes.

[HomeschoolrsRUs]

$2.15 five days ago (my husband found the cheap gas returning from church Sunday afternoon). Around my area, though, the cheapest on can find it is $2.25.

[Patriot Heart]

$1.78 OKlahoma City!

[BarryC]

The lowest I can find in this immediate area is $1.899 at Wawa and at the no-brand station in town. A week ago that Wawa was selling it for $1.919.

But a week ago I got gas at an Atlantic Fuel in Pleasantville, about 13-15 miles from here, for $1.889. So they are probably 2 or 3 cents lower than that by now, over there. Atlantic Fuel seems to always stay a penny under the Wawa.

A while ago, maybe in December, the lowest I could find was in the $1,90s, but then it suddenly went up into the low $2.10s , but then a couple weeks ago it started plummeting. We have finally come down to the November 2005 low.
I like it. But I really don't understand why they have to keep playing games with the prices.

[BEST45CAL]

We're still well above $2/gal. Prices seem to be hovering around $2.40/gal. Yesterday it was $2.35. East bay/central valley.

[Franko]

$1.99 currently, but was $1.89 last week. Currently my Giant Eagle supermarket discount of $1.20 a gallon at Getgo means next time I fill up, it will cost me about 70 cents a gallon, heh.

[Timberwolf]

Got down to 1.78 last week, but is now back up to 2.09.

[Marcster]

2.11 is the lowest I've found around here.

[BarryC]

Well now all of the stations in this immediate area that were at $1.889 for a while suddenly jumped to $1.969. I noticed it on Monday. They're at it again! I thought we might actually go into the $1.70s or $1.60s, but no such luck.

[Oldeshooter]

I paid 215.9 for regular in Wilbraham, MA.

[BEST45CAL]

$3.09 as of today. Bastards...

$2.54⁹

What frosts my cookies is that a barrel of crude has to be $90 to justify $3/gallon gasoline. Crude is at $57-59...a gallon of unleaded is being sold (on the markets) for $1.94.

I think I need to call local talk radio and ask why we're being gouged AGAIN.

If you want to hammer someone for the high gas prices, go after the Eco-Wackos. Refineries are running at just over 50% refining capacity while they transition over the "summer blends" --as demanded by the Gorebots.

It happenes every year.

$2.349 at Sam's.

Paid 2.52 in western MA, up 40 cents a gal in last 3 weeks.

$2.69 in Arizona where gas is more expensive than anywhere else in the universe except socialist Europe.

Hey Foxie, I was in Phoenix about 3 years ago when that pipeline broke and caused the prices in AZ to jump higher than they are now in CA.

AZ had some HIGH ASS prices back then, too. This one place in Phoenix was charging $4/gal.

People were following the gas trucks from wherever they came from to the gas stations. I found some relatively "inexpensive" gas on Chandler Blvd at Coronado (in Chandler). I had to wait about 30 minutes, but it was worth it.

Napolatano enacted some kind of price gouging law after that.

2.79 and climbin a few cents each day!!

[BarryC]

It was skyrocketing for a while, going up 2 or 3 cents a day or more. But it's been holding at $2.35<SUP>9</SUP> for two weeks now, at all of the Wawas that I have seen. What's strange is, Wawas normally vary in price from place to place but right now all of them have the same price. That's very odd. There is one no-brand station near here that has it at $2.34<SUP>9</SUP>. That's as low as I can find. So it's gone up 50 cents a gallon since December. Ridiculous!

[BEST45CAL]

$3.33/gal. Shell on I-5 near Stockton. Bastids...:punish:

[Naturalized-Texan]

The price of gasoline has declined here by more than 6 cents in the past week - several stations had prices of $3.059 last week; those same stations now have prices at $2.999 or lower.

[Beowulf]

Best price I found around here was $3.01/gal.

[Rhino]

Still $3.25 here.

I got a good laugh when I was researching some refinery statistics to refute something posted in another thread. I found some old posts from a few years ago where folks were agonizing over $1.79 a gallon. Boy, I'd sure like to be agonizing over that right now! LOL!

[Antigone]

I would LOVE to be agonizing over $1.79/gal! We are at $3.31 here.

$2.69 in Arizona where gas is more expensive than anywhere else in the universe except socialist Europe.

Not true. The Chicago area has the highest prices.

$3.59 this morning, and going up not only each day but sometimes several times a day.

[Rhino]

Not true. The Chicago area has the highest prices.

$3.59 this morning, and going up not only each day but sometimes several times a day.Uh, Coastie, check the date on his post. He posted that price over two months ago.

And he was quoting an entire state, not just one city.

[Rhino]

If you want to see the prices nationally, go here.

Arizona actually has some of the lowest prices.

[Rhino]

Right now, New Jersey is the lowest statewide, and Hawaii is the highest. Illinois is the third highest and Arizona is the fifteenth lowest.

It's down to 3.14 here...gasoline is 2.17/gallon as of yesterday's close...a dollar mark-up? Hmmmm....

[Naturalized-Texan]

I just filled up at a nearby Wal-Mart this evening at $2.939. Gas prices continue to drop in this area.

[BuckeyeMike]

$3.23/gal. .......... NW Montana

[Rhino]

Got mine at $3.09 yesterday. Only cost me a little over $90 to fill the truck up. Good thing it wasn't on empty.

[BEST45CAL]

[Rhino]

That's about the same reaction my wife has.
