The Official "Price You Paid For Gas" Thread

Who'da thought that someday,way out there in California, that gas would be less than or equal to that here in good ol' middle America. $3.29/gallon here still, although some stations have lowered it to $3.19, but none lower than $3.09

[tangerine]

lol I bet those people I saw on the news a while back that were complaining about their credit card company giving them stupid rewards tehy didn't need like free gas instead of cash back are changing their mind on that now. Oh, and my brother called when he got to work and said reg unleaded went from $2.89-$3.19 over night where he gets gas and biskits'n gravy every mornin

[FLABSLAB]

I saw on CNN last night that some stations in Georgia were charging almost 6 buck per gallon. I saw the sign myself. After this is over, I think they should go after those price gouging crooks.

[tangerine]

yea they showed yesterday morning some parts in georgia are over $7.00. They are investigating to see if its certain stations or all over because they are running out of gas. My dad said local news says we are running low on fuel now too. time to break out the rollerblades, tape, and bottlerockets.

[Altus]

London Ontario this morning:$1.36 / Litre CAN=$4.35 / Gal US

[djpositivek]

Just went up here to $1.489/litre That's for self serve regular (87 octane)

[ArcsVibe]

Being reported now in Montreal we have reached 1.48$

[BOZACK]

I heard that Bush released 6 million barrels from the reserves. Let's see if that makes a difference.

[tangerine]

Gas station across from hospital is $3.29 for 87 octance now

[Raivis]

so far the worst i have seen here for reg 3.29 the lowest is 2.89 crazy

[ColonelPanic]

Quote, originally posted by ragingfish »My signit says it all. Jersey and it's array of well-hidden "watering holes of gas" rocks.Yea yea, but right now it says $2.89 and I just paid $2.88. I'm across the river in KY now though. Back home again in Indiana, it was less than it had been but still $3.19 when I left this afternoon.

[Emerica13]

jeez 3.19 is cheap compared to the 3.59 i paid for a few days ago start hauling some drills to alaska and get busy

[tangerine]

I went to pre-admission for surgery tuesday and when I was leaving I got a call from a friend, there is a gas station owner in town that is selling his fuel for $2.73 a gallon until he runs up, he said its bull$hit to raise prices on fuel thats already been purchased laying on the ground and he's not gonna be one of them. I'm glad to see there are still some honest people still left in the world today. Needless to say I had my brother drive over there and fill my truck up while we could still get it at a decent price.

[ColonelPanic]

Really, all we need is *one* station such as that per town. Stay at that price and before you know it, PRICE WAR!!!

[millster]

There's one here doing that too. They have theirs at $2.88 (middle grade). The store right across the street is a full $.10 more expensive. We'll see how long that lasts though. I'm actually amazed to see that gas here has stayed as cheap as it has. We normally get nailed on fuel prices and we have 2 refineries in town and 1 just 15 miles away (I know that doesn't really make any difference, but it seems like it should).

[Mr. Poopypants]

$3.19 for regular unleaded

[djpositivek]

On the news a few times I saw somewhere selling gas for $4.99/gallon. Anybody know where that is/was ? That would have to be the highest ever. Someone's gouging big time

[Mase]

I spent $40 to fill up today.

there was a place in the Atlanta area that had premium at $5.99. a reporter questioned him about it. he said he set it that high so people wouldn't buy it and he'd have some for later ... yeah right

[Raivis]

i heard that in northern va, most stations had gas for around $3.69 a gallon for reg. one guy jumped his to $7 a gallon for reg, they went in a shut him down. he had to close his doors for a couple days. completly closed must suck for ihm but he gets what he deserves. i think they should have given away his gas ,u know help the community screw the buisness. lol

[ColonelPanic]

I filled up before taking off on a trip this morning for $2.99 a gallon, 87 octane. The damn thing sucked down 1/4 of a tank rather rapidly, ran like crap too... Filled it up at 3/4 and it took $17.00, a whopping 24-ish mpg, all highway. I'm not sure what was in that crap gas I bought earlier, I guess they're diluting it with 50% petrol and 50% urine, then charging me out the wazoo for it.If I have to finance a friggin' tank of gas, I at least expect quality fuel from those asshats in the oil industry... Not sure if you guys have noticed it, but I have - as the price goes up, the quality of the fuel has done nothing but gone down the crapper... Or is that just me?

[ColonelPanic]

Woo hoo! I'll take your gas costs + my costs for everything else, please. That would be nice... Can't say I envy you for having NJ gas prices plus NJ everything else prices. lol

[ragingfish]

Sadly, I'm gonna have to fill up tomorrow, and I don't know what it's at anymore. That was back on the first. It will have been 4 days. Should be around $4 the way prices have been going up. *sigh*

[AZViking]

Our prices here seem to have 'leveled' off at about 3.19 for 87 octane.

[zionzr2]

seems we are leveling at 3.25/ gal

[vibebob]

looks like we leveled off at $2.89 for regular

[ArcsVibe]

It has been 1.344$ a liter since 8-31

[BOZACK]

Just filled up yesterday. $3.55 a gallon. The prices are still moving around, mostly up.

[ramenboy...]

i lucked out. after picking up my daugher for the weekend, we took a quick drive to the west suburbs and found 87 for 2.99the rest of chicagoland is stuck at around 3.20

[ZubenElGenubi]

Prices have pulled back some around Houston over the past couple of days. I'm seeing $2.859 to $3.049 in the northwest area.I got mine filled up today @ $2.799 with my 10cent discount @ Kroger.Here's the latest chart:

[BOZACK]

On CNN just now they said that the price of gas should drop 40 cents in the next two days.

[ragingfish]

Gas here dropped about $0.05 in the last day...so there are signs of "withdrawl" in the prices. Thank god.

[ColonelPanic]

Not going anywhere here... Dropped to $2.99 sometime and just kinda stuck there.

[ragingfish]

Wooo! Found 2.99 today! RIGHT NEXT DOOR to a station charging 3.29! Things that make you go hmmm...

[zionzr2]

today its at $3.09/galin "Madtown", WI

[BryanC7020]

when I officially picked up my Vibe, it had 216 miles, it now has 463 and isnt yet at the halfway mark, its a little under halfway between the first quarter mark and half. Thank God for a car with decent gas milage, I was using half a tank just going to work and back in my old car, in this one I drove it home (about 35 miles), drove it around alot (about another 15), then drove it to work and back (53 both ways for about 106), took it to evensville and played around in it today (about another 10), still not half a tank... wooo!!! Not bad for an AWD, and especially since I looked down today (my first real day behind its wheel) and realized I was doing 95 in a 55(oops...)and its really good considering gas is was as high as 3.99/gal here. Its down to around 3.45 now, but still :-/

[zionzr2]

Well its been 2 weeks since i filled just as Katrina was making land fall and i'm only at half a tank... Gas is now down to 2.79/gal. only 10 - 15 cents higher than b4 Katrina.

[ragingfish]

2.89 hereA good DOLLAR above pre-katrina levels.

[Vibe_dude]

its is now 115.9 a litre here.....down from 142.9 at some places here...on the weekend of the "rolling stones concert"....just rapping the ppl coming in to see teh show.

[BOZACK]

Got gas today for $2.879. This was great as other stations were $2.999 to $3.199.

[kostby]

I paid $2.639 today (lowest local price since Katrina hit), but Indy-area prices range from $2.499 up to about $2.699 according to the TV.Now watch them hit $5.00 as Rita approaches the Texas/Louisiana refineries early Saturday morning!

[tribones]

i found a good deal at shell today... [IMG][/IMG]

[vibebob]

there was a Shell station that had $2.59 on Thursday, then $2.79 Friday morning and 3 hours later $2.89 and this seems to be the cost.on a side note: we had lots of people up from Houston to escape Rita and there were LONG lines at every station and many were sucked dry... or at least thats what the stations say. ** cynical look on face **

[ColonelPanic]

Gas shot back up to $3.00 a gallon for 87 octane here. It had been fluctuating from the $2.50-something range to $2.80-something.
