How bad are you getting hit at the pump?

Well well, lucky you.[;)] Actually I drive a company truck so it’s even more irrelevant to me.[:D][8D]

I recall when Desiel hit 2.00 a month back in the late 80’s and the trucking was in a uproar.

I did find a Jersey Fuel stop with a 1.20 price of fuel and filled it (@200 gallons I think it was) and opened my big mouth on the radio and caused a 2 mile backup on both sides of that street waiting to fill from that poor man’s tiny storage tank. I never did find out if everyone got thier fuel at 1.20 =)

I was amazed that gas actually went down over the Memorial Day weekend, and found the lowest price ($2.81) at a station in a tiny town - the place you’d expect the highest price! Filled up Monday and will fill up tomorrow. Haven’t been watching otherwise.

$2.97/gal. for regular in suburban Lincolnwood, IL, and $3.05 here in Chicago.

Guess where I buy my gas?

It’s been 2.89.9 here for quite some time. We decided not to take a day trip over the holiday, and so didn’t spend $45-50 in gas. It was kinda nice just staying put. We are driving fewer miles with the higher price, but I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing. Just a choice.

Low $2.60s here in the Funcoast of Florida.

I earlier reported $2.69 for reg in Sarasota and it has now gone to $2.82 - no real reason why.

Two weeks ago I was in Laguna Beach, CA and supreme was $3.93! When I remarked about the price, the station attendant said “Shell just sent us 4s…” which I suppose gets them ready to post prices of $4+.

I really do LOVE my Honda Civic Hybrid.

…With figures quoted in several posts above and my own experience of seeing 10 - 12% or more money changes back and forth daily…it really is most difficult to believe anything of the banded about reasoning: Supply and demand…I believe that reasoning less and less each day that passes with price changes we’re seeing.

$1.09/litre (CDN) I think that’s about $25.00/gal.

Out here Pheonix, it has finally semmed to come down from the 3 dollar marl Some places are now in the 2.94-2.99 range.

I have a small business and my income is always being wathced. I dont have much in the way ofextra dollars and living lean has become the norm. This gas crunch (Katrina, now) has been kinda rough. I dont go out to railfan as much and there is still a new train store that I have not been to yet due to the fact its 30 miles away. I cant jusitify spenidng 12 bucks in gas ( I drive a Dodge ) just too look around or buy a 10 dollars train car kit. Argh… But atleast it is coming down, and I will take that.

$2.67/gallon at the neighborhood gas station.

$2.63/gallon at the local grocery store gas station.

There are 3.67 liters to a gallon…

here in clinton ia. today at murphy oil alas walmart 2.61

I’d estimate US$3.80 per (American) gallon for the Canadian gas.

Out here in Environmentally friendly VT…where cars are the spawn of the devil to all of the Birkenstock wearing, pot-smoking people from other states who moved here to ‘stop everything, the scenery is beautiful’…

I apologize for my rant…

Anyways…

87–$2.83
93–(which my car takes[:(]) $3.05

2.49 on Thursday, 2.59 on Friday and 2.57 on Saturday. Interesting here we have a warning system for a price increase. The Shell stations all go up one day before the others but they usually go up an extra ten cents then drop later. Wednesday evening Shell went to 2.69 then Thursday evening all the others go to 2.59 then on Friday the Shell stations dropped to 2.59. The other interesting thing is seeing three cars at the Shell pumping 2.69 gas when the Phillips 66 across the street is selling gas at 2.49.

Over the past week the price for 87 Octane has bounced around between $2.71 and $2.96 from station to station from hour to hour.

Paid $2.55 for 87 octane in Lexington, S.C. yesterday. Passed the same station this morning and noticed the price jumped 14 cents overnight.

Marc! Glad to meet you – you feel the same way about the birkenstock crowd I do! We’re originally from West Brookfield, which hasn’t been invaded yet…

I pay about $3.05, more or less, where I am in Connecticut (and you think you have problems, Marc!); my son, in Montreal, the equivalent of $4.00 US, more or less. And my daughter, in Edinburgh, UK, the equivalent of about $7.00 US.

100 octane is $5.70
98 octane is $5.50
95 octane is $5.25

we have no fuel with less than 95 octane over here in switzerland
