Gas Prices - how are they where you are?

[catocom]

3 days ago, QT had it marked at 2.09. I couldn't believe it.
I filled up then. It still was $50 to fill it up.
Today the've got it marked at 2.24.

 

[ekahs retsam]

same here...

btw i love QT

If I had a full-size V8 van, I'd expect $50 fill-ups. But I only bought about 11 gallons of gas, and it came out to just over $30.

2.23 at Racetrac. That's a $40 fillup on the dodge.

 

[chcr]

I filled up for 2.17 yesterday, same station today is 2.19. NOw I happen to know that this station gets their gas delivery on Monday, so what am I to conclude from this? Oh yeah, it's the weekend and they're right by the freeway.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

$2.14 on Thursday --- $2.24 on Friday --- and that's at the cheap places! !

 

[Leslie]

99.9 cents a litre yesterday.

99.9 cents a litre yesterday.

3.78/gal
Man, I though we had it bad.
Why is it so high?

 

[HomeLAN]

That's Canadian, Cat. Still comes out to US $3.08 per gallon, but it ain't 3.78.

 

[catocom]

oh,...I converted the volume, but for got the trade issue.

but, yeah, that's still crazy high.

The smart money says taxes are the difference.

The smart money says taxes are the difference.

YOu'd be pretty much right on the ball. Non-percentage taxes on gas...that is, doesn't matter what the cost of gas is, there will always be $x/liter which is tax.

Filled up in Chateagay NY for $2.24/gallon on Saturday. Not damn bad at all

 

[A.B.Normal]

101.5/litre

 

[Luis G]

101.5/litre

ok, that's the 2nd time i see that, are you guys talking cents, yens or what?

 

[MrBishop]

$1.06 per litre Canadian.
or, if you prefer ... 106 cents per litre

 

[catocom]

I was just in town, and the price lacked 1/10 of a cent being 2.50/gal.
Man I can't afford gas for my riding mower if this keeps up.

 

[Inkara1]

The cheapest places in town--Circle K, Stagecoach Liquor, places like that--are at $2.699 or higher. I filled the tank with Chevron a few days ago and it was at $2.759.

 

[Gonz]

What I want to know is, wtf are the futures traders doing? We actually have a surplus of gasoline & crude in the US & still it hit $67./bbl. Somebody is manipulating the market.

 

[Inkara1]

Hey Gonz, what's Diesel #2 running over there? It's around $3.23 a gallon out here. And is Diesel #2 what your truck uses?

 

[Gonz]

Most big trucks run on #2. Right now it ranges from $2.249 to $2.559
