Sheesh, how the prices have increased since this thread was started.

I'm currently paying $4.25 -$4.50, depending on where I get my gas.

Looks like it may be so before the end of the month (March).

Tony your idea of $3.00 gas now looks cheap as of today!

Here in Ca we are paying $4.57 a gallon and it keeps going up!

Believe it or not, we travel across the border from Canada to the U.S. to fill up. We're paying almost $5.50 per U.S. gallon up here, it's at $1.44 a litre where I live.

I heard a segment on Fox News this morning that makes gas prices even more depressing. The federally mandated measurement do-hickies (the scientific term) on the pumps are calibrated to measure gas at 60 degrees. Gas expands when it gets hot so, in the midst of this heat wave, we're not even getting a full gallon.

Of course, in Phoenix, we'll have heat wave until October.

My fill-up on Thursday was $4.95.9 a gallon. $85 fillup, which I have to do once a week just to commute back and forth to work. That's about $3,000.00+ more per year that I have to pay (as compared to 4 years ago)just to get to work and earn a living. No wonder prices in our economy are rising.

Gasoline under $3 for first time since February

By Tom Doggett Tom Doggett – Mon Oct 20, 5:22 pm

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The average U.S. retail gasoline price dropped 23.7 cents over the last week to fall below $3 a gallon for the first time since mid February and is at the lowest level in almost a year, the Energy Department said on Monday.

The national price for regular unleaded gasoline is $2.91 a gallon, the cheapest since October 29, 2007, but still up 9.1 cents from a year ago, the department's Energy Information Administration said in its weekly survey of service stations.

The average pump price has fallen 57 cents a gallon in the last two weeks because of cheaper crude oil and lower petroleum demand due to a weak economy.

Falling gasoline prices act like a tax cut for consumers, shaving about $30 off the fill-up cost for the average big vehicle from the record $4.11 a gallon for gasoline in July.

The savings would give a family an extra $1,000 a year, according to government estimates.

In the EIA's weekly survey, gasoline was the most expensive on the West Coast $3.28 at gallon, down 14.6 cents. San Francisco had the highest city price at $3.49, down 11.3 cents.

The Gulf Coast had the lowest regional price at $2.73 a gallon, down 25.6 cents. Cleveland had the lowest city pump price, down 19.9 cents at $2.70.

The EIA also reported gasoline prices were down 9.4 cents at $3.34 in Los Angeles; down 26 cents at $3.20 in Chicago; down 27 cents at $3.09 in Seattle; down 30 cents at $3.08 in Miami; down 22 cents at $2.94 in New York City; down 30 cents at $2.93 in Denver; down 22 cents at $2.84 in Boston and down 27 cents at $2.76 in Houston.

Separately, the average price paid for diesel fuel fell 17.7 cents to $3.48 a gallon, also the lowest since mid February, but 39 cents higher than a year earlier, the EIA said.

The New England states again had the most expensive diesel at $3.73 a gallon, down 16.3 cents. The West Coast had the cheapest diesel at $3.43, down 18.9 cents.

Still over $3.20 here. We have serious gas price hysteresis here.

This weekend was strange- gas prices fell during the day as well as overnite. I passed up 2.849 a gallon in Waterbury in the morning and got it at the same station for $ 2.819 that evening. Sunday, I had a different driving route and when I stopped in Torrington, it was 2.779- so I filled up again. But, the prices of everything else I buy remained at the higher prices since the gas run-up with the one execption of milk which was down .10 or $ 0.20 a gallon.

I just checked twincitiesgasprices.com for an updated. We have several stations at $2.28 or $2.29. I filled up in Wis. on Saturday for $2.89, then cross the border and have gas 60 cents a gallon cheaper three days later.
