No, monopolization and deregulation have got on the fast track since '94, so it isn't just Bush, and it isn't just the Republicans.

I hate you. Its $2.68/gallon in Cortez, CO.

JayMcGee · 09-21-2006, 06:45 PM

$2.68 is a bargain to European ears......

here in dear old Blighty, the price has just *fallen* to around 87p/litre...

(4.8 litres per gallon = £4.18 /gall = $7.9)

Not quite as bad as that I'm afraid JayMcGee.

You've quoted UK Gallons. The US Gallon is quite considerably smaller at just 3.8 litres.

Still a valid point, worth raising a second time.

$2.13 on Wed in NJ

Brett's Honey · 09-26-2006, 07:16 PM

Down to $1.93 this morning here - (Oklahoma)

The faster it goes down, the higher it'll bounce on the rebound.

Elspode · 09-27-2006, 02:55 PM

That's my fear. Appears to have stabilized at $1.97 here.

KinkyVixen · 09-27-2006, 03:57 PM

The lowest in my city is 1.98...sounds like a good deal compared to the past year, but not compared to when i started driving. Holy crap.

BigV · 05-01-2007, 07:12 PM

> $67 to fill up the car last night. oof. And self serve regular, too. At the cheapest place in town. I think it was about $3.33/gal maybe more, I didn't want to stare.

elSicomoro · 05-01-2007, 07:15 PM

Yesterday morning, I spent $34 to pretty much fill up my tank (12 gal and change at $2.899). By yesterday afternoon, many stations were creeping up to $3. I won't have to fill up again until Thursday, but I see a $37 or $38 fillup. The most I've ever spent was last summer--$39 and change.

Oh man, that reminds me.

I will have to start paying for gas again in less than two weeks!

xoxoxoBruce · 05-01-2007, 07:36 PM

$3.099 a couple weeks ago. I don't buy gas very often.

Spexxvet · 05-01-2007, 08:27 PM

$2.73 in South Jersey, pumped by the attendant.
