I've seen on the news where stations in parts of town here are down to $2.89. Unfortunately, my around the corner stations still think it is liquid gold and want $3.25.

What are you guys seeing?

One station locally it's $2.89/9 the rest are $3.23/9, I hate that .9c thing do they think we are fools enough to think that's not a penny.

I don't know how it is in your area, but here in the "midwest" area of the US, it isn't uncommon to drive 100-120 miles a day just to and from work. With those kind of prices for fuel, that could ruin a perfectly good pay check. I did it for 32 yrs, but the cost of fuel wasn't near what the prices are now.

Current time is 07:52 pm
