Gas Prices

[Starchayser]

Our gas prices fell today by .02. Its now 3.17 a gallon for regular. Im in TN north of Nashville. I was planning a trip next week to take the kiddos somewhere, but now Im trying to narrow it down by gas cost!
What are prices near you and where are you?

[Sib2of11]

Bought gas today for $3.13 gal. A few days ago it was $3.09 at the same gas station. :(

[luv2xstitch]

Here in Jacksonville, AR and the surrounding areas it is ranging from $3.09 to $3.18 or so. I live on base and it went down .03 today. I didn't notice what it was off base today.

[LuvMaui]

Reno, NV gas is $3.59 a gallon for mid-grade. I'm thankful that I have a Toyota Prius and get 53 miles per gallon. :)

[jcme]

Prices are ranging from $3.09 to $3.45. Most of the stations in a specific area are pretty close in price but if you drive to different suburbs, the changes can be pretty drastic. :eek:

Take care

[Starchayser]

Wow! nice gas milage luvmaui! I wish they made a vehicle that would pull a horse trailer and haul my kiddos that got at least 30mpg. 53 is a dream!!
Right now I get about 22-25, which is pretty good for what I need to get everyone around.

[Mykhal Jaems]

Upper Peninsula of Michigan ... $3.49

[YellowRoseTex]

I paid $3.11 per gallon on Friday. Driving by another gas station on Friday it was $3.19, than on Saturday it was $3.14. The prices are fluctuating alot. You can drive by a station in the morning, by the afternoon the price could increase as much as 10 cents per gallon! :stomp:

[minimom]

Our prices are ranging from 3.19 - 3.39. It also seems to change daily here.

[100792]

Washington State $3.39/gal regular.
Diesel nearing $4/gal.

[YellowRoseTex]

I just saw an item on the news that said prices were going to top out at $4 per gallon! :eek:

[aquachick]

near Seattle, Washington- $3.55 per gallon for regular this morning

[jcme]

I was in Portland, OR earlier this week and they were $3.49/gallon.

I can't believe I was happy to see $3.30 in SE Michigan when I was driving home from the airport this morning.

[celtictigeress]

We live north of Chicago, which is one of the highest areas in the country for gas prices. I filled up at $3.59 the other day ( :eek: ) and now the cost per gallon is inching up toward $3.70! It's ridiculous. My husband and I have been planning to go to the Tulip Time Festival in Holland, Michigan for a year and it looks like we just can't afford the drive now. :duh: I'm Dutch on my mother's side and was so looking forward to exploring that heritage. Guess I'll have to settle for looking at the tulips in my garden.

[moovin]

Pearland,TX $3.47/gal regular

[DeniseEMTB]

I live in the southwestern part of WV. As of today, May, 15, 2008, gas is 3.95. It went up day before yesterday. It had been staying around 3.60-3.75. It's going to cost a fortune to go to the beach this year. I guess were not going to eat out as much huh?

[Mykhal Jaems]

Was only $3.99 Wednesday, $4.09 yesterday and then $4.24 today.

Upper Peninsula of Michigan

[Cats3]

WOW I thought ours was high at 3.73 today. When is it going to stop??

[YellowRoseTex]

I filled up the other day at $3.69, today prices range from a low of $3.78 to a high of $3.95. You blink and the price goes up! This is crazy! Earlier this year I remember reading that gas prices would be $4 by Memorial Day. So do they have to make the story true? :stomp:

[rosie28681]

I live in NC and gas here is about 3.93 now.....I have to chose between gas and groceries every week.

[PeachesPear]

I don't even drive daily anymore it is so expensive! It is over $4.00 a gallon in DC. I was traveling last weekend and filled up in NJ and it was almost $80 to fill up my car!
I think that it is cool that some GPS models have the option to see the gas stations around you and their gas prices so you can save a little bit per gallon because I filled up at one gas station last weekend and then passed another that was less expensive another mile down the road. I know that the new TomTom ONE 130S and XL 330S have that option, it is a great idea and very helpful!
I hope the prices drop soon!!

[dw5382]

Here in Dayton, Ohio gas is about $3.93 a gallon today June 15, 2008. It was $4.19 a gallon about a week ago. I heard this week it would be at least $6.00 a gallon by labor day. How do they know this so far in advance. The funny thing is it turns out to be true. Hmmmmm!!!!

[100792]

Washington State $3.39/gal regular.
Diesel nearing $4/gal.

Since my original post n March 16 the price has gone up over $.60/gallon.

In my area the price of regular gas is now around $4.07/gallon. there are some places where you can still find it at $3.99/gal.

I used to be able to fill up my 12 gallon tank for a reasonable price. I now put $50 in to fill it up.

[LuvMaui]

I paid $4.25 for mid=grade. Carson City, Nevada Errrrrr!

[Marian Paroo]

I don't drive, but it's sure obvious that every single price rise in the past couple of months comes back to that :(

[celtictigeress]

I have never believed that the oil companies "have no control" over gas prices. Remember when Congress was investigating the idea of price gouging in the industry? Just as my husband and I predicted would happen, when the investigation was hot the price for a gallon of gas dramatically dropped...and as soon as the investigation died it shot right back up. Odd how that the market always fluctuates to the lower end of the scale when the oil companies come under the microscope and around high travel holidays, isn't it??? :mad:

[Mykhal Jaems]

Gas prices are holding steady at $4.19 here. For a few days Memorial Day weekend it was $4.29, then went back down 10 cents.

It's been a couple weeks now and nothing has changed.

Sure would love to see them go down more.

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $4.09 this morning *omg* But Wal Mart was hovering at the $3.85 mark, while Shell was $3.95. I saw diesel yesterday at $4.96!

[dw5382]

Today they are $3.97 here.

[clogaholic]

I paid $3.89 last time I filled up. I need to fill up again tomorrow ( gulp ).

[jcme]

Prices here are ranging between $3.97-$4.17. The gap is between stations, not fluctuations at the same station (that gap has always been present in this area).

I am so thankful that at least there is some consistency. It was driving me crazy seeing the prices change daily if not multiple times a day. :eek:

Take care

[amm121982]

are's here in alabama is $3.92 a gal! :mad: :eek:

[dw5382]

Today here in Ohio it is $3.97.

[Kylady1966]

Here in Kentucky it is $3.87...for now.

[dw5382]

Just saw a gas station here in Dayton, Ohio that is $3.81 a gallon.

[Mykhal Jaems]

We are down to $3.89.

It was as high as $4.29 right after the 4th of July.

[Sib2of11]

Last Tuesday before I drove to Maine I filled the gas tank at $3.99/gallon. Yesterday, at the same gas station, the price was $3.71. I haven't driven by the gas station today, but it's probably a penny or two less than that by now.

The highest I saw it at that station was $4.09 early in July.

[YellowRoseTex]

I just saw $3.75 today. Most stations are around the $3.85 mark.

[Kathy]

We are below 3.74 here in north Texas at almost all the stations.

[Mykhal Jaems]

It's so good to see the prices going down all over! Sort of gives me a little hope for the future!

[YellowRoseTex]

:woohoo: I saw $3.68 this morning! I hope this is a trend that continues.

[celtictigeress]

I saw $3.81 per gallon yesterday and got all excited. Then I realized how sad it is that I think $3.81 is a decent price for a gallon of gas. :confused:

[clogaholic]

It's down a little here - about 10 cents less. I hope that it keeps getting lower....

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $3.81 per gallon yesterday and got all excited. Then I realized how sad it is that I think $3.81 is a decent price for a gallon of gas. :confused:

That's what they want us to think. I remember when gas went up over $2 a gallon, I read in the paper that we would never see gas below $2 a gallon again. That we would get used to paying that and that the price would continue to rise. Geesh, now it's been up to $4 and we're pleased to see $3.70/80. :stomp:

[Mykhal Jaems]

Back up to $3.99.

Grrr.

[D'anne]

I paid $4.19 today that is cheap for California.. :(

[YellowRoseTex]

I paid $3.61 today. WalMart dropped 7 cents since yesterday.

[mac53892]

its 3.89 here in Indiana today.

[Seminarian]

The price of gas if $3.83 in Georgia. I recall 30 years ago when we were aghast the price of gas might get to $1.00 a gallon....oh for the days!

[hystersisMDC]

That's what they want us to think. I remember when gas went up over $2 a gallon, I read in the paper that we would never see gas below $2 a gallon again. That we would get used to paying that and that the price would continue to rise. Geesh, now it's been up to $4 and we're pleased to see $3.70/80. :stomp:
when gas hit 1.89 we sold my husb. 3/4 ton truck and bought a saturn. Now we have a suburban and a 4 door truck again. Man we just never learn.. :confused:

[YellowRoseTex]

Gas here is starting to drop into the $3.50's. However; yesterday there was a price war on the other side of town. A new gas station opened up and was offering gas below $3 per gallon, so the other gas station lowered their price. It was back and forth until they were down to about $2.37. I read that people were waiting for close to 2 hours in line. :eek:

[dw5382]

WOW Yellowrose I think I would have been in that line. Gas prices went back up here yesterday to $3.75 a gallon. I wish it would just stay a certain price for a while.

[Mykhal Jaems]

We have two gas stations in town.

They are both at $3.99.

Both are offering promotions to buy gas at their stations.

One is offering a chance at a $50 gas card drawing is either one a week or month, can't remember b/c I don't go to that one.

The other one is working along with local grocery store, with every $10 you spend at the store you get $.01 off a gallon of gas. You can save the coupons they give and get up to $.20 off 12 gallons of gas at a fill up. Needless to say, it's the only grocery store in town, so I have bunches of coupons for gas. I guess that's sort of a good thing about living in a small town.

[dw5382]

It is Friday August 22, 2008 and yesterday gas here was $3.43 a gallon. I was cheering and calling everyone. It has been a while since it has been that low

[D'anne]

Wow! Gas is $3.99 at the station by me...... It hasn't had a
3 in it for a long time... :hi5:

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $3.32 this morning. I also saw alot of gas stations in the $3.40 range.

[Oceanlady]

Hi everyone,
I am still getting my bearings on the site. Thankfully it is similar to Hyster, so I will go trial and error. It is while I am playing with it, that I discover thing.
Our currency here is £ Sterling.
One of our £'s would be almost $2.
Now for the shock-----OUR GAS IS ALMOST £5 A GALLON.
That is close to $10.
Times lke this I wish the universe had one way of life and a single currency.
I guess it is not as simple as that.

Arms across the Atlantic.

Sheila

[dw5382]

WOW Oceanlady! I think I am glad about our $3something a gallon here.

[kaceyleann]

I'm in Lincoln Park, MI. I got gas yesterday at 3.57 a gallon. That has gone down quite a bit but still to much. Because of gas prices my family is unable to afford our vacation this year.

[clogaholic]

It was $3.39 here today. That's still high but heading in the right direction :)

[Mykhal Jaems]

Gas is still a steady $3.99 here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

I wouldn't be surprised if they go up this weekend, usually do for Memorial Day and Labor Day.

[Sue1]

We are still high, at $3.65 at the cheaper places, and up to $3.79 at some others.

[Sib2of11]

$3.49 at the Hess station in Coventry, R.I.

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $3.21 the last few days, but this morning it jumped back to $3.35. That's a big jump for overnight...

[Kathy]

I just drove by "Race Trax" gas station and its 3.29 today.

[YellowRoseTex]

I decided to stop today, wished I had stopped yesterday ;) could've saved a few bucks. Paid the $3.35. I did notice that the stations that are usually high were holding at around $3.40-$3.45. I did hear on the radio this morning that with Gustav heading for the Gulf that the oil prices were rising again. Geesh, it's not even in the Gulf yet.

Interesting thing I read in the business section of the paper. The major oil companies are selling off their gas stations. The article said that they cannot keep up with the lower priced stations. I know that I rarely shop at a Shell, Exxon or Chevron. I will buy from those stations only if I am on empty.

[clogaholic]

Yes, I noticed that the prices were up a bit again. I filed up at $3.39 a few days ago and today they were $3.44. I hope that they will go down again - and lower still.

[trishaloha]

We are fortunate here in my area of NC, where the prices have dropped from $3.99/gallon for regular, to steady at $3.59 over the past couple of months. Diesel, which used to be so much cheaper than anything, still hovers around $3.99--I have a good friend who has to use diesel, and feel terrible for her--it was way over $4.29 at one point a few months ago!

Sincerely, Trish

PS: I lived in Dallas, TX from 1989-2004--sure do miss that place!

[Cats3]

Our gas is down to 3.49 a gallon but I'm sure it wont last for very long

[dw5382]

Well it is 9-17-08 here in ohio and gas prices have gone back up to $3.99 a gallon. Was $3.59 a gallon last week before hurricane Ike. Which by the way just blew through Ohio and wrecked havoc.

[SaphireBtrfly]

3.99 here in Florida also! Prices constantly bounce up and down with all of these stupid storms!!

[trishaloha]

Our gas prices have jumped steadily here in NC since the hurricane--my local station went from $3.59 last week to $3.79 yesterday, to $3.99 again today! My sis went to another part of NC last weekend, and paid $5.39 for regular...she saved her receipt, and plans to report the station for price gouging--can't blame her a bit!!! It's just outrageous...

[YellowRoseTex]

I haven't been out to see the gas prices, but heard reports on TV of one station charging $4.69 while the station just down the road was charging $3.69. I think there is a bit of price gauging going on! I am hoping to venture out a bit tomorrow and will report back to prices in the Houston area.

[Sib2of11]

I had been buying gas at the nearby Hess station and before Hurricane Ike it was selling for $3.39 a gallon. The other stations around here were selling it anywhere from $3.45 to $3.59. The day before Ike hit Texas, some of the stations had already raised their prices, but Hess remained $3.39. The lowest price of the other stations was around $3.67. Monday, Hess was at $3.51, but today has dropped to $3.41.

I don't understand why gasoline that's already in the ground has to go up in price simply because the Hurricane hit Texas. I can see where it could affect future deliveries, but gas already in the ground? There's no need for that.

[YellowRoseTex]

Prices here seem to be holding between a low of $3.47 and a high of $3.69 a gallon.

[jcme]

Before Ike we were around $3.69, then it spiked to $4.19. Today I paid $3.59. I just wish it would be a little more stable.

Take care

[Sib2of11]

$3.33 today at my local Hess Station. :)

[Cats3]

3.27 here today at quick trip

[dw5382]

Hi
Yesterday the gas prices around here were $3.99 still. We are still recovering from Hurricane Ike since it came through here a week and a half ago. Hopefully prices will go back down. Most gas stations have been closed due to massive power outages and those open kept running out of gas so now that things are slowly getting back to normal we will get a break.

[Mykhal Jaems]

It got as high as $4.19 after Ike, now it's down to $3.89. It was $3.00 when it was hitting. I filled up the truck, with all the talk of gas prices being up to $5.00 a gallon I thought we were in big trouble, thankfully it's lower.

[Cats3]

Today our prices have gone down to 3.21 a gallon so I filled up today cuz I'm sure it wont last long

[rumbledoll]

$3.71 in south carolina today :(

[Ginger Coots]

Here in northern Canada we pay approx 5.45 US for a US gallon.

[Sib2of11]

I paid $3.27 yesterday.

[RMBalthrop]

Gas prices here in Tennessee is any where from $3.87 to $4.15 It's just crazy :-(

[Kathy]

Craziest thing....3.19 at Walmart pumps yesterday! 3.21 around the corner at RaceTrack and Quiktrip.

[jcme]

I got excited to pay $3.37 yesterday.

Take care

[Mykhal Jaems]

Down to $3.81 here.

Was $3.85.

[Mykhal Jaems]

Here in northern Canada we pay approx 5.45 US for a US gallon.

Has it been this way for a while or did it go up to that recently?

I know that in other parts of the world they have been paying WAY more than we are used to for a long time, it's not really a big deal to them anymore.

Another question, sort of similarly related, don't answer if you feel uncomfortable, is the minimum wage higher there, are you paid more than we are go the gas price is sort of equivalent to ours?

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $3.27 this morning, forgot to look on the way home. I hope the downward trend continues. :woohoo:

[Cats3]

It is 2.99 a gal here today hope it keeps going down

[jcme]

It is 2.99 a gal here today hope it keeps going down

:woohoo2: Under $3.00/gallon. I hope those prices come this way soon.

Take care

[Kathy]

Walmart is still running the cheapest here. Today it was 3.18. I filled up yesterday (my husband the day before) for 3.19. Amazing because no other place in town is this cheap. The rest of the stations are 3.31 - 3.39.

[rumbledoll]

$3.59 here still :mad:

[D'anne]

I paid $3.73 yesterday at the cheap gas station here in
Fresno, Calif.

[YellowRoseTex]

It is 2.99 a gal here today hope it keeps going down

Haven't seen that here yet. The lowest has been $3.27. I noticed some of the other stations coming down to the $3.30 mark.

[Cats3]

I am glad it has gone down this far and today some of the stations were at 2.97 so I take advantage of that.

[Mykhal Jaems]

Down to $3.79 here and happy to see it so low!

[clogaholic]

I paid $3.47 last time I filled up.

[Kathy]

Lowest around here is still 3.19. Staying there at some stations (Walmart stations) but other stations are nearing that in the 3.24 - 3.21 range.

[Mykhal Jaems]

Down to $3.69 and I'm happy to see it down again.

[YellowRoseTex]

I am surprised that I reported back before Ike that our prices here were lower than the rest of the US. Seems the prices jumped higher in other States before they did here. Now, the prices seem to be getting lower in other States before we drop even lower here. Interesting :rolleyes:

[Sib2of11]

$3.19 here.

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $3.05 this morning! My jaw about hit my brake! That same station last weekend was $3.45

[Cats3]

We are down to 2.77 a gal here. I hope it lasts awhile

[dw5382]

Wow Cats3 that is low wish it was here. We are at $2.95 tonight. Everyone is lining up for gas because they don't know how long this will last. There are so many people out of work around here that I hope it last and goes lower so people can afford to drive to look for work.

[sherry 74]

illinois is $3.16 today

[Cats3]

Today I filled up at QuikTrip for 2.69 a gal. Nice to see its still going down

[Mykhal Jaems]

3.49 yesterday

[dw5382]

We are at $2.94 a gallon today it has went down a whole penny since Wednesday. I guess we should be glad it is under $3.00 a gallon.

[jcme]

:woohoo2: I :woohoo: finally saw $2.99/gal, however it was a cash only price. :o

Take care

[Cats3]

Tonight it is down to 2.64 a gallon

[clogaholic]

$3.29 here and we're in the middle of a lot of refineries!

[Mykhal Jaems]

$3.45 last night

[rumbledoll]

just saw $3.29 here :D

[jcme]

I paid $2.99 this morning to hold me over until I got to Costco later this week. Change in plans and I ended up at Costco today and paid $2.77.

That was the biggest price difference I had ever seen within a couple miles. Usually Costco is about 5 cents cheaper, sometimes 10, but never this much cheaper.

Take care

[cupcakes4me]

I paid 2.78 two days ago. I am in Oklahoma and it has went down about .20 in the last few weeks.

[YellowRoseTex]

:yahooo: I saw $2.79 this morning on the way to work. On the way home it was $2.74. It's been a very long time since I have seen gas under $3 a gallon!

[Cats3]

This morning it was 2.60 a gallon and tonight it is 2.58....sounds good to me

[rumbledoll]

$2.92 today :D

[Mykhal Jaems]

$3.29 yeah!!!

[Kathy]

I filled up today with 2.76. The pumps seem to be going up though. The station across the street from my office (which is never the cheapest) went from 2.82 to 2.92 this afternoon.

[Sib2of11]

The station where I buy gas dropped 4 cents today to $2.95.

[Cats3]

This morning it is down to 2.55 a gal. I like this price drop

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $2.68 on the way home. Some of the more expensive stations are still over $3 a gallon though.

[Cats3]

2.51 a gallon here this morning....woohoo

[clogaholic]

It was $2.71 here this afternoon.

[Cats3]

2.39 a gallon here this morning

[Mykhal Jaems]

$3.06

I thought my eyes were deceiving me! I can't wait to get below 3.00, it's almost there!!!

[Kathy]

2.24 here in North Texas today. Amazing.... :bliss:

[Cats3]

2.33 a gallon here today

[Mykhal Jaems]

2.99 today. I'm so happy it's under 3!

[YellowRoseTex]

:woohoo: Wally World was $2.28! I didn't stop though as there was a HUGE line. I do need gas this week so am hoping the price will continue to fall.

[clogaholic]

It's still $2.69 here today.

[jcme]

I'm just happy that the prices seemed to have stablized. They are going up :( and down :) a little, but not like the wild swings we were previously experiencing.

Take care

[luvnwyf]

South Eastern Colorado and I think here it is around $2.75

[Cats3]

2.27 here today

[YellowRoseTex]

:woohoo: I paid $2.24 a gallon this afternoon! I filled my tank for $32. First time I have filled it for under $40 in quite some time. :hi5: The parking lot was packed, I wasn't going to wait in line, but swung around the lot and found the fuel truck filling the tanks and for some reason no one wanted to squeeze to the pump that was right there in front of him. I motioned to him to see if the pump was working and he nodded yes, so I swung in and backed up a bit. I can't believe that everyone was sitting in line on the other side of the lot and leaving that pump empty. So I got a good deal and didn't have to wait in line. :bliss:

[Mykhal Jaems]

2.95

[TAC2005]

We're at $3.10 still in Southern Idaho! Can't wait tell it goes under $3.

[Mykhal Jaems]

We're at $3.10 still in Southern Idaho! Can't wait tell it goes under $3.

Keep the faith, we just got below last week.

[Cats3]

2.17 a gal. tonight

[dw5382]

Just put gas in the tank and it was $2.37 a gallon. Wow I couldn't believe it. I just pray that it doesn't get any higher for a very long time.

[Cats3]

This morning it was 2.20 a gal.....this is getting better all the time

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $2.17 a gallon yesterday! Prices are varying greatly from station to station. The majority I have seen are in the $2.30-$2.40 range. I have seen a high of $2.99 and $2.17 the low.

[dw5382]

Gas Prices today are $2.26 a gallon. I pray we get to see them below $2.00 soon and they stay that way for awhile. But don't think that will ever happen.

[clogaholic]

Here, near home the price is 2.49. We paid $2.28 nearby in Humble today.

[Mykhal Jaems]

$2.89

[healingplease]

Here in Saint Petersburg/ Clearwater Florida area, gas is 2.65

[Cats3]

Today we are at 2.05 a gal. getting closer to being under 2 bucks soon....woohoo

[YellowRoseTex]

Oh my, I just saw $2.09 on the way home! Wow! The prices are really tumbling fast. The line at that station was unbelievable! I didn't need gas, so didn't have to stop, but I love checking the prices and seeing them going back towards the $2 per gallon.

[luvnwyf]

Here in Colorado $2.56

[Cats3]

Today we hit 1.99 I was in total shock.....lol. I didn't need any gas today so maybe by the time I do it will be even lower

[Kathy]

Its still above 2.00 here....last I saw was 2.24 - 2.19 but there was gas sightings of 1.92 in a suburb near DFW (reported on the radio news) but I doubt they stayed there. Probably did that to get some attention....

The lower prices are great!

[clogaholic]

It was $2.23 here today. I hope it keeps on going down...

[Cats3]

Down to 1.97 today

[cgwife]

We live in Maryland but my Hubby had to travel to Virginia the other day for work and got gas for $2.13.....WOO HOO I was excited. Hopefully if will keep falling, however, I am not complaining considering about a month or so ago it was nearing $4.00!

[trishaloha]

Prices here in our little town have dropped from $3.99 to $2.59 in just over a month now!! We are very happy :) And when we traveled to a larger town yesterday, we filled up at just $2.33--yahoooo!!!

[Cats3]

Today I filled up at 1.87 a gallon....hope it goes down a little more

[luvnwyf]

southern colorado 2.16

[YellowRoseTex]

$1.91 here today! I will need gas in a few days, I hope the downward trend continues. Although I'm thinking I should probably fill up tomorrow.

[uLearnAsUgo]

Gas is down to $2.13 in NJ. I wonder how long it will stay there.

[dw5382]

We are at $1.99 a gallon here in Ohio. Please stay that way.

[Sib2of11]

$2.19 here in RI last night.

this morning it is 1.84 here

[Mykhal Jaems]

2.49 this week, had coupons so it was 2.34, every little bit helps.

[YellowRoseTex]

:woohoo: I paid $1.85 this evening! And they were even cheaper than Wal Mart! Wal Mart was $1.88. For the first time in eons I paid about $25 to fill my tank. :celebrate

Interesting to note that Wal Mart was $1.99 this morning when I went by there. My first thought was "oh oh I should've filled up yesterday as everyone will be higher by the time I get off work today." I was quite surprised to see the sign blinking $1.88 on my way home. I didn't stop there though as they had a line and it's a pain to jump off the freeway and get back on. I was going to take my chances on Valero and if they weren't cheaper I would fill up tomorrow.

[D'anne]

I just went by the gas station and it said 2.41.
I hope ours goes down to 1.88 :yahooo:

[dw5382]

Our gas is at $1.96 a gallon today. Hooray!!!!!

[jcme]

One area was $2.01....like the didn't want to pass that $2.00 threshold.

Then another was $2.19. It was only about 15 miles away but it is so frustrating that there is such a wide price range in a relatively close area.

I usually get gas once a week so I'm hoping it will be under $2.00 soon.

Take care

[clogaholic]

It was $1.99 here today. We are usually a little behind the rest of the area with the lowest prices. But it's soooo much better...

[jcme]

I saw $1.97 last night :dancepart

Other places about 5 miles up the road were still $2.15-2.19 :confused:

Take care

[Cats3]

its down to 1.84 here as of last night

JC,
Gas stations here within 5 miles from each other can differ by as much as 50 cents a gallon! It is crazy. The stations by my office are known to be the highest in the city, but you can drive 5 miles down the road and find the cheapest. I don't get it. :hmm:

[Cats3]

Today is 1.81...getting lower

[dw5382]

We have prices from $2.19 to $1.96 here.

[trishaloha]

We dropped down to $2.29 in town today--yahooooo!!!!! :)

[Cats3]

Tonight we went to dinner and it had dropped down to 1.77.

[YellowRoseTex]

The station I had paid $1.85 at earlier in the week was $1.99 this morning.

[clogaholic]

It was $1.95 here today. I will need to fillup tomorrow - hopefully it'll be down even more by then :)

[Cats3]

Today it is 1.69 here

[dw5382]

It has finally made it to $1.93 here. Please keep going down.

[trishaloha]

Today we are down to $2.09 and are expected to drop to $1.99 in the next few days--wowie, we are very excited!!! :)

[dw5382]

We are now at $1.89. I am not sure if it will go any lower because the price dropping has slowed way down. Hope it continues down.

[YellowRoseTex]

Same here. The price dropping seems to have stopped. Most stations here are between $1.81 and $1.99 per gallon, have been that way for the last week or more.

[Cats3]

Today we are at 1.67 and its been like that for the last 2 days

[clogaholic]

It dropped from $1.88 to $1.86 here today. It has slowed down but is still heading in the right direction :D

[Mykhal Jaems]

$2.29 Upper Peninsula of Michigan

[YellowRoseTex]

As we were driving around town today running errands, we saw a few stations that were $1.78, most were in the $1.85 range.

[Sib2of11]

Gas went from $2.09 to $2.02 today where I buy my gas.

[clogaholic]

We paid $1.78 today. :woohoo:

[Cats3]

its still 1.67 here so maybe it's at a stopping point for now

[jcme]

I usually drive about the same distance between fill-ups and did a double take when the pump clicked off at $19.23. :D

It was $1.80 at Costco and as usual, 5-9 cents cheaper than other stations in the area.

Take care

[dw5382]

We are now at $1.83 a gallon here. I don't care if it drops any more just stay where it is. Don't want it to go back up but fear it will next week when it gets closer to holidays.

[Cats3]

Today when I passed by Quik trip it was 1.59. Hopefully it will stay this price for awhile

[Disney Diva]

Wow! You all are sooooo lucky. Gas here in So Cal is still in the $2.20 to $2.40 range, depending on what station you go to.

[QuiltAngel]

I paid $1.84 this evening.

[Cats3]

This morning I paid 1.55 so looks like it is still going down

[trishaloha]

Wow, has it ever been dropping here! It was down to $1.88 yesterday--over a 21 cent decrease in just 2-3 days!!!

[Cats3]

Today we are down to 1.48.

[Mykhal Jaems]

Wow, I haven't seen that since 2001!

Down to 2.19 here, that's 2.00 less than Labor Day weekend.

[Cats3]

Tonight I went past quik trip and they have marked it down to 1.45. I wish I would have waited a couple days to fill up now

[clogaholic]

$1.75 here today.

[Kathy]

I just filled up with 1.58 today. I couldn't believe it....

[QuiltAngel]

Here I thought $1.68 yesterday was good.

[Mykhal Jaems]

Down to $2.11 here, still impatiently waiting for less than $2.00, only 12 cents more to go!

[Cats3]

Today we are down to 1.42. I can't believe it is still going down

[dw5382]

WOW! The gas prices are amazing today. I saw it for $1.53 a gallon. Seems like years since it has been that low. Wonder if it will all change on or about Thanksgiving Day?

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $1.51 yesterday, but today it was back up to $1.60.

[D'anne]

Yipee! I paid $1.89 Friday in Fresno!

[Mykhal Jaems]

Down to $1.99 today in Norther Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

[clogaholic]

We paid $1.58 out near my DD's house today. It's $1.71 here.

[Cats3]

We are down to 1.39 here as of yesterday

[dw5382]

It is going back down today to $1.65. Was $1.53 the day before Thanksgiving.

[clogaholic]

It's down to $1.59 here now.

[Cats3]

Today it went down to 133 a gallon....hope this lasts

[YellowRoseTex]

I saw $1.41 today :woohoo:

[Sib2of11]

My station is down to $1.65 today.

[Cats3]

Today we went down to 1.29

[Mykhal Jaems]

Down to $1.83, that 1.29 looks really good, don't remember the last time it was that low!

[dw5382]

I saw a $1.49 today just can't believe it. Now if the gas we use to heat the house would go down again I could afford that mansion. HAHAHA

[clogaholic]

It's down to $1.48 here today!

[VioletMarie]

Unbelievable! Gas here is $1.85 & the next city, approx 30 mins away is $1.71. What's up with that?

It's always more expensive here, but usually not by THAT much. RME

[dw5382]

VioletMarie where is here? Gas is back up to $1.64 here today. BOO!

[Cats3]

We have had a steady 1.29 here for the last week. Hope it doesn't go back up anytime soon

[trishaloha]

We too are holding steady for about a week or so, at $1.65--the nearest small city is down to $1.48, however!! We are very pleased :)

[YellowRoseTex]

We seem to be holding in the $1.40's, usually around $1.44. Although I did see $1.39 yesterday. I heard a snippet on the radio the other day that said gas prices would probably go below $1 per gallon.

[dw5382]

YellowRose I heard that also but I heard it would be because the economy was going to crash. It would be like the Depression Years. I pray not but that is what I heard. Our gas prices have finally went down to $1.59 a gallon. They went back up to $1.79 for Thanksgiving and are finally starting to go back down.

[SeaPea]

Arizona, $1.65/gal. regular

[Cats3]

We are up to 1.38 today

[dw5382]

We are at $1.51 here in Ohio.

[D'anne]

It went up a little in Fresno... $1.79.
It is still below $2.00 so I am thankful for that!

[dw5382]

We are still at $1.51 around here

[minimom]

Boy, do I envy some of these prices! We are holding steady at around $1.75. Because of our state taxes, we will never see it get much lower. Some people are actually crossing the state line to get gas cheaper. I'm a little too far away to make that practical. So the best I can do is grocery shop and keep earning my $.10 off for every $50. It does add up that way.

Pam

[dw5382]

Well they did it again. A week ago gas was $1.51 it is now $1.85 I wish they would tell me why it is going back up. I can't wait until it gets warmer and I can walk more. I'll not buy so much of their over priced gas.

[ladyboss24]

I think it's so interesting that gas prices have almost silently gone down to where they were a couple of years ago... and there's no explanation. Don't tell me that it wasn't artificially high during the summer vacation season. We all know better, right? ;)

[dw5382]

Well prices dipped down to around $1.77 a gallon on Monday but on Tuesday they shot up to $1.99 a gallon. Supposedly all because of Israel. I doubt that. Is anyone else seeing rising prices?

[Mykhal Jaems]

Gas got as low as $1.84 here, they are back up to $1.95.

[Sib2of11]

Where I buy my gas the price was $1.58 a gallon last night. Today, it increased to $1.73. In less than 24 hours it increased by 15 cents. I hope this doesn't mean we'll see $3 again. :(

[rumbledoll]

$1.49 to $1.69 overnight :mad:

[Cats3]

We went from 1.38 to 1.62 in a weeks time

[dw5382]

We are still at $1.99 and hating it. Greedy oil people.

[Kathy]

I filled up this week with 1.39.

[ofgrace]

Here in S.C. were down to $1.47 but this past week we are jumping back up at $1.69. Why?

[dw5382]

They say gas prices are going back up because of fighting in Gaza and that the arabs have cut production. I am not sure I buy that. We went up to $1.99 3 days ago and today I saw it at $1.85 so maybe we will go back down. Lowest was $1.41 about a month ago.

[clogaholic]

It has gone up a bit here too. Now, I read that they're talking about adding an extra 10 cents a gallon tax because people are driving less :(

[dw5382]

We are still at $1.81 here. Thank goodness it hasn't gone up any more.

[YellowRoseTex]

We had gone back up to $1.68, but is down to $1.55 this week.

Jean, I had heard about that extra tax. :stomp:

Sounds like a penalty for doing what they asked us do to.
:rolleyes:

[Marian Paroo]

I think it is all a game played by OPEC, the non-OPEC fuel producing countries and the multinational distributors to see how much they can get at any given time.
