Pom,
What did Della Wear?

I dunno, Alaska? :eek:



From KY to CA I have seen the prices from 3.43 to about 4 bucks - 4 bucks being asked for in AZ

Nope - she wore a brand New Jersey. Haven't you ever heard that old song? You're certainly young :eek: enough to remember Perry Como. :eek:
For those that don't know who Perry Como is, then you must be babies. :p:D

In Vicenza, Italy it is $5.67 a gallon when the stations are closed but when they are open it is $6.01 a gallon.

I think the lowest I've seen is $3.81 but there may also be some stations in the $3.70's range. It's always so much more expensive for everything in CA.:(

I saw it for 3.92 but it's a good 15 cents less outside Cook County. We have a county gas tax.

On my way to work this morning the gas station that was $3.81 is now down to $3.77.:) I hope that by the time I need to fill up that the prices will have gone down even lower.:)

$3.69

I found a great app/website:
www.gasbuddy.com

You type in you zip and they show you gas prices in your area. They are quite complete at least in my area. Included small independents and Costco,Safeway, Arco and others. Couldn't find one NOT listed. Love it!:love:

I went grocery shopping in a town 20 minutes from mine on Friday night. I filled up for $3.18! There were several stations where it was $3.21, including at Kroger where I purchased it; but because I used my Kroger plus card I got the extra discount. I also used my Discover card to get another 2.5% back. Of course in my town gas prices are $3.47. *sigh*

In Butler where Concordia is located, the average price of gas right now is $3.59 a gallon. It's been a long time since I had to buy gas!

It was $3.32 yesterday, but glad I waited because it was $3.31 today. I got a whole 6 gallons of gas for $20 versus almost 6 for $20 last week when I put gas in my car.

cassiesmom
08-26-2011, 03:29 PM
A gentle rant... The station nearest to me went from $3.83 on Thursday to $3.97 on Friday -- up 14 cents overnight. I thought it might be because the hurricane that's now in the Atlantic Ocean could affect supply and deliveries next week.

Karen
08-26-2011, 05:11 PM
It's funny, because you REALLY have to pay attention. Yesterday I saw gas was $3.59 at two station near each other on Main Street in Watertown, a little further west on the same road it was $3.65, and then $3.79! All on the same street! And I know there are still places around that it is $3.87 or 3.89!

Roxyluvsme13
08-27-2011, 09:54 PM
Isn't some oil refinery shutting down/shut down because of the hurricane? That's what my mom said, and it would explain why I paid $3.35 for gas today.

moosmom
08-28-2011, 07:58 AM
Lowest I've seen this week is $3.77. That's when I fill up.

Up here in the Concordia area, the lowest price is $3.49 a gallon. I'm sure with the labor day weekend coming up, the prices will climb again.

Here in Armidale today.........
$1.48 per litre.

1litre = 0.2642 US gal.
1 US Gallon = 3.785 litres
3.785 litres X $1.48 = $5.60

Convert $5.60 AUS into $US = $5.95 US

Sheesh.....and you are all whinging about the price being between $3 and $4 ?
We are paying nearly double here downunder.

Are your high prices due to taxes or higher profits for the companies?

Thanks Helene. I needed that.
A compliment from a Texan is what we Aussies regard as a windfall.
We here downunder believe that one day we will have something bigger and better than you all have there in Texas.
Ohhh....time to go feed the pet mice.........;)

What ??? You think the honest oil companies and the great goverment we have here has something to do with the cost ????
That's utterly ridiculous !!!! :D:D;)

09-02-2011, 10:58 PM
Nooooooooooooooooooo. :D :D :D

When my friends point out how high are gas is, I point out that people in other countries pay way more than we do. A lot of that higher cost has to do with taxes. I was really asking how much is economics, such as availability, versus taxes. :p

FYI, my home state has higher gas taxes and taxes in general than the state where I work and reside. As a result, the roads are in better condition, and the state can offer more services. :)

My state of residence, SC, tried to secede from the Union once before and there are several "old families" in this state that would do it again in a heartbeat. :eek: Our taxes are lower, but the services are lacking. And the infrastructure is failing.

I don't want to part with any more of my money than I have to, but it would be nice to drive down the state and local roads and not hit potholes. :mad:

I think tho that it all comes down to simple political economics.

Glad I'm not an Aussie :eek:.

$3.45 here. Though I saw it somewhere on the other side of town for like $3.36. Oh well, I'll be paying $3.45 when I go fill up Buttercup shortly :p.

cassiesmom
01-05-2012, 08:34 PM
A couple of blocks away from where I work, there's a Mobil station. It went from $3.45 Tuesday evening to $3.65 this morning. 20 cents in two days?!

Karen
01-05-2012, 08:36 PM
Yikes! I noticed the Shell station's price went up 10 cents in 2 days, and I thought that was bad! Right now, you can pay anywhere from $3.25 (which we filled Turtle up on) to $3.65 a gallon for the cheapest grade of gas, depending on the station, all within a couple miles of each other. They will charge what the market will bear, no question of that!

It's down around $3.30 here as of last night. But when I was in Arizona this week I saw it for as low as $3.11.

01-08-2012, 05:06 PM
The cheapest that I've seen it here is $3.51 but I'm sure that soon this won't last either.:( At least my car gets good gas mileage and I don't have to drive very far to work.:)

Roxyluvsme13
01-09-2012, 04:06 PM
$3.25 yesterday, fell to $3.23 today. I'm sure it is cheaper on the other side of town though, it's usually at least a couple of cents cheaper.

The above was on Saturday. On Sunday the same gas station was now up to $3.53 so I decided to fill up my tank on my way to my parents house. On my way back home the price had gone up again to $3.55. So far it's still at $3.55 today but things may change when I pass by it on my way to work tomorrow.

Went from $3.44 to $3.48 last night... Luckily I got to a station where it was $3.44 before it changed.

Karen
02-23-2012, 08:23 PM
So tonight, on the way TO rehearsal, gas was $3.59 at the "cheap" stations. But on the back, a little over an hour later, it had gone up by 6 cents, to $3.65. It was already $3.69 at the regular stations, so I still saved a few cents, but that was surprising!

beeniesmom
02-23-2012, 09:04 PM
$3.69 here in jax, fl. I've been driving less and getting so discouraged.

krazyaboutkatz
02-24-2012, 12:02 AM
Well you guys still have much cheaper gas than we do in CA. At most gas stations it's already at $4.00 or higher.:eek: When I passed by an Arco gas station it was still at $3.97 which is the cheapest that I've seen. I bet it'll be more tomorrow though. My mom heard that by summer our gas prices will be at $5.00 per gallon.:eek: I'm so lucky that my commute to work isn't very far and that my car gets good gas mileage.

I filled up my Escape for $3.55 a gallon last night in SE Wisconsin. The total came out to $50.01 to fill my tank completely. :( I am glad I do not have a pick-up truck like my boyfriend, way too expensive....

$3.59 when I went out yesterday - and that was one of the normally cheaper stations. Didn't really pay much attention to other places.

I just put some gas in my car and it was $3.72/gal. When I get paid on Wednesday, I'm driving over the border to Massachusetts where it's AT LEAST 15 to 20 cents cheaper than in CT.

Woohoo! I paid $3.97 today at the BP on York Road in Hinsdale :D It's at least $4 everywhere. Don't know why it was so low at the BP ($4.19 at the Shell station across the street) but every pump was in use when I was there.

Wow! You have higher gas prices than we do in CA. I always thought that CA gas prices were the highest. The last time I filled up was last week and it was $3.73. Now the lowest that I've seen it was this morning on my way to work at $3.69. I hope that it continues to drop.:)

cassiesmom
05-14-2013, 12:25 AM
$4.09 at the Shell station a couple of blocks from work! A good price for which I didn't even have to change my route home from work! Like!

I've been watching the prices along my route and my back-up route. When I go from Cook County into DuPage County, the prices drop 8-10 cents. So - I'm careful to get it on the other side of the county line.

Today was interesting - saw gas prices for "regular" (the cheapest grade the station offers) ranging from $3.55 to $3.99, all within one trip (Newton to Cambridge/Somerville) less than 20 miles round trip!

When I was out yesterday, I noticed most stations at around $3.50 - +/- a couple of cents here and there at some stations. That's for regular unleaded in central Delaware.

kittycats_delight
09-08-2013, 07:23 AM
€1,78 a litre here x 3,78 making it €6,73 if you convert that to american dollars it would be $8.87 a gallon. We pay the highest gas prices in Europe...it is unreal. If we didn't run on GPL we would never make it. We pay €0,75 a litre for it which when converted would be about $3.74 a gallon (american dollars).

We couldn't either if it weren't for the fact we use GPL. GPL runs us a gallon about the same as regular gas in the US. Thank heavens for us deciding on getting that integrated when we purchased the car 4 years ago.

It's going up again around here and I'm not sure why. $3.89 in Cook County - ugh! That was at the Shell station right near me, which always seems to be priced the highest. But I got it at the Mobil by my church (in DuPage County) after choir for $3.59, much better.

cassiesmom
05-31-2014, 01:35 AM
Went up 20 cents per gallon overnight. I paid $3.89 yesterday, and when I passed the same filling station on my way home from work today, it was at $4.09. :confused:

Wow, it's funny - one of the regular stations I buy at is pretty stable - when all the others kept fluctuating (it can vary by as much as 30¢ from one station to another) I was surprised the other day when it went up two cents to $3.57 a gallon, it had been at $3.55 for weeks!

cassiesmom
10-30-2014, 11:21 PM
Hurray! $2.99 in DuPage County on my way home from work! Fill 'er up! The Shell station close to my church (also in DuPage County) was at $3.18 when I was coming home from choir. But under three bucks, that's sweet. Whatever I can save on gas goes in the Christmas fund.

Karen
10-31-2014, 10:45 AM
The lowest price station yesterday hit $2.99 near here - but you can pay 20 or 30¢ more per gallon if you aren't paying attention. The way crude oil has dropped in price, the gas prices should be MUCH lower, but they are content to rake in profits hand over fist.

Today we saw $2.71 at WalMart about 11 miles from me. That's the lowest we've seen in a 20 mile radius. We filled up all my gas containers that I use for lawn mower and if necessary the generator.

Seems like it has gone up over the past week or so. Up to $2.79 at the Shell station right by where I work.

Karen

It went back up around here, and has been over $3.20 a gallon for weeks, and that price you only get if you look carefully.
