Gas Prices - how are they where you are?

[unclehobart]

It has seemed to stabilize at the 2.99 mark here.

That's the going rate here too. Well, $2.99.9, aka three bucks.

Just paid $3.59 for super. $36.00 to fill my tank. We were going to go to a farm out east today, visit a roadside farm stand which has the best pies I've ever tasted, take some pictures, etc. Then we drove by the corner gas station that had $3.69 for super and big signs that said "OUT OF GAS". And we decided to stay home instead.

It is $3.299 locally today.

It's sad when we look back at $2.259 as reasonable.

 

[catocom]

I don't see it getting below 2.50/gl.
I getting ready for a full recession myself.

 

[Gonz]

That's alright. I'll refuse to participate.

Me too. I can be a frugal mofo if need be.

As I may have mentioned before, some people think that if you look up "cheap bastard" in the dictionary you'll see a picture of me.

On a semi-related note, evidently the sale of men's underwear has incresed 35% since the gas prices jumped. Coincidence? I think not.
(presumably women have better bowel control)

Oh SHIT!
I guess I'd better start using a little less bleach then.

Oh SHIT!

Nice pun

That's what one looks like.

Damn. Went to Cartersville today to help my Mom-in-law, had to run to Walmart in Rome. Regular unleaded was fucking 2.73.

I was down to half a tank, I topped that bugger off. I should be good for 2 weeks, if need be.

Taking some jerry cans with you next time?

You can use regular in the Hemi? Sweet.

$2.73/gallon...ahhh the good old days. everything is over $3/gallon around here now.

2.99.9 here, seems to have settle there. Our prices here in town jumped to 3.64 for about two hours on Friday, I guess someone heard something, then decided maybe they didn't.

I really do have to wonder if at least a part of all this is to just condition us. I wondered it back when the price made it to 2. You know, a couple months ago. Now 2 is looking pretty damn good, and I know the oil companies know that now too. I doubt we will ever see gas below $2 a gallon again, no matter how many refineries they build.

Just for perspective. From the first page of this thread.

2.19 around where I work.

2.09 around where I live.

I fill up at home.

Welcome to my paranoid little world. Make yourself convertable and watch while Gonz tries to tell us the conservatives are going to fix everything and that everything bad is the liberal's fault.

I can, but they recommend mid-grade, so I actually paid 2.83. Thank God I don't have to run premium. Still the cheapest I've seen in 5 days. Jerry cans might be a good idea.

That would be pretty nice of you to fill Jerrys cans. He would probably be really happy.

First things first. Let's get some conservatives in office.
