What a difference a state makes! I was traveling back from a mission's trip in KY on Sunday and we stopped for gas in Tennessee and paid $2.09. Then Monday back in SC I filled up at $2.39.

The local gas station is $2.51/gallon. The cheapest I've found is $2.41, and some stations charge over $2.70 - quite a range! The only good thing about gas in N.J. is that we don't pump our own; by law, attendents do it.

lilsquibb — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 13:54:37 GMT

Yup the only options we have available right now are regular unleaded or E85. For a while there when our prices went down far enough many people weren't even buying the E85 because the regular was just about as cheap. They say that if it's not a $.50 difference in price you aren't really saving anything because you get worse mileage with the E85.

It's 10% Ethanol. I have a Nissan Xterra, the regular kind. I've never had a problem with it. It's not the E80 Ethanol-only stuff. I was concerned when I moved here about the Ethanol, but the Nissan dealer said it's ok for regular cars.

Now that I read your post, maybe a 1993 would not take it so well. Mine is a 2006. That's probably why they have the no ethanol option. Look I learned something...

Don't hate me! I'm paying $2.65 a gallon. In Iowa the gas is supplemented with Ethanol. The regular unleaded without it is much more expensive than the super with it. Here Diesel is cheaper than both!

That only works if you have a vehicle that supports ethanol... we have it here too but my 1993 Saturn won't take it. It is coming down slightly but not enough yet.

Last I saw was 2.79 for regular.

Michigan has to be the best at something... highest gas prices in the US. Truely we have no idea. Once the national average is stated in public media, it's guaranteed that the prices here will go up.

Michigan's economy has been so bad so for so long the gas companies are getting greedy and hijacking prices. And we have a governer who won't do anything about it. People aren't driving as much or even buying as much convenience stuff and the stations are loosing money big time. There's been many in this area that have gone out of business.

I just posted a review today of Gasbuddy.com. In it, I mentioned a resource in the site that shows all of the counties of the United States with varying colors to indicate relative gasoline prices with the rest of the nation. The states with the most red (used to indicate high priced gasoline) are California, Washington, and Michigan. I can understand the west coast, but Michigan? Why are prices so high there? I'm sure there is an economic reason, but I do not know what it is.

:( We are driving up north for vacation but I still think driving is cheaper than a plane ride. Luckily we cut a lot of other expenses out of the trip and tried to make this a cheap one! I think people are silly to skip vacations altogether because there are still ways to make it budget-friendly. Maybe I should start a discussion about this :)

Oops --price rose overnight--at the moment 2.49/g. Locally, most people we know did little travel over the holiday. Locally, there are just 2 wks of school; then soon after that families may wonder about summer plans, or perhaps--a "Staycation"--as it is termed locally. :-(

Prices are slowly creeping upward. We are now at $2.12 a gallon. But this is still well below the Houston peak price of about $4.00 per gallon, so I have no complaints.

At $2.48 I have complaints. True that's not near the $3.50 of previous, but in reality the price has gone up almost a dollar in less than 6 months. Price per barrel isn't going up that fast.

My mom says with all the talks of hybrid and how Obama says we HAVE to go that way, that the gas countries are getting worried and lowering prices per barrel in hopes we will forget all the Hybrid talk. Hopefully the USA isn't that dumb to fall for it.

Ha! We're actually lower than you all now! Prices dropped a dramatic .20 today to around 1.57

A lot of this is just the market stabalizing itself back out from the mega gouging that was occurring as well as a drop in the amount of oil China/Japan are buying recently. Lots of factors but I'm pretty sure Obama is not one of them.

I paid $1.49 with my stop and shop card last Friday!!I earned a discount for shopping there and it paid off..Loving the price drop..It doesn't hurt as much to go get gas.Now if other prices will follow suit since it's costing less to deliver the products right?Maybe I ask for too much. :)

Another new low spotted today- only $1.65 per gallon! It now costs me only $30 to fill my tank. When prices were at their peak in my area, it cost $72 for a fill- up.

These prices need to level off soon- the Houston economy performs best when the prices are higher. Anyone else hoping for gas prices to increase about fifty percent from where they are now?

Wow! I wish our gas was that low. It has just come down to $2.24 in Ballston Spa, NY. My first son reports gas at $2.19 in Tampa, Fl. and my second son reports it at $1.97 in Virginia while my third son says it is $2.28 in Provo, Utah.

Not all gas stations are created equal in pricing though. Coming home last night I saw one station at $2.59. Most are around $2.35. argh!

Many projected the prices would begin to climb after the election. Some said it was going to be a morale booster, a ploy to encourage faith in the US economy, and so forth. The station I filled up at yesterday for $2.11 is now $1.99 but about one mile down the road the station that was $2.09 yesterday is now $2.29 today.

I just don't understand how the prices are fluctuating as much as they do. I understand one might drop there's a few pennies to beat the guy across the street. But we're talking extremes here. Yesterday gas station B was cheaper than A. Today A's prices have gone down and B's prices have surpassed them all. This in less than 24 hours!

bkovacs — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 19:39:21 GMT

As much as we are all enjoying dramatically lower gasoline prices, I would not be against higher taxes on gasoline as part of an overall energy policy. For example, tax gasoline/diesel fuel so that the price is $4 per gallon. Certain businesses could be exempt from the tax, such as truckers, farmers (for off-road use), railroads, airlines and so on. That way, we pay higher prices for gasoline but it simultaneously does not increase the cost of commercial travel, food and other merchandise that we buy.

High prices for gasoline will make us drive less and cause us to shop for more efficient/smaller vehicles. The tax collected should be used to encourage alternate energy and energy conservation, so that we can get serious tax credits for solar, wind and other valid alternate energy generation products. There would also be tax credits for insulation, window/door upgrades, improved furnace/heating systems, etc.

At $2 per gallon, we will soon be back at car dealers snapping up monster SUVs and pickups. I don't want to deny them to people who really need them, but big SUVs/pickups are horribly wasteful as all-around transportation vehicles. As much as the car dealers could use the sales right around now, I hope the Escalades, Expeditions and dually pickups have seen their day.

Yeah, I love buying gasoline for half the price it was four months ago. But I cringe at the thought that will make it easy for us to climb back into our SUVs and drive down the road at 15 miles per gallon. I, for one, am willing to pay extra for that.

Just a thought...

Well, yesterday when I bought gas, it was $2.19. But I've heard that it's gone down to $2.16. I'm really hoping that it'll get down to $2.00 a gallon before it skyrockets again. The big oil companies are starting to complain - loudly. I'll be even happier when/if the price of food goes back down. I can barely afford going to the grocery store anymore.

Well, I never thought I would be paying less than $2.00 per gallon, but that is what happened today. Kroger cut its price to only $2.02 per gallon. Using my Kroger card, I got my 10 cent per gallon discount, reducing my final price down to only $1.92 per gallon!!!

Did you ever think we would be paying prices like this for gasoline? Just a few months ago, the price was around $4.00 per gallon and a purcahse of, say, $40.00 didn't even fill half the tank in my Ford Explorer. Now, the same $40.00 send the gas gage needle almost all the way to the "F".

We are currently paying between $3.59-3.79 per gallon. We can be at one station for $3.79, drive a couple of miles and drop to $3.59. We still have several stations that aren't carrying the low grade so we are forced to buy the more expensive gas.

Well if they lower the price on the gas they already bought then they lose money. They have to wait until the next load and then they lower the price.

Today's prices are around $3.50 per gallon, up slightly from a week ago. This isn't bad when you consider that the Houston area just got rocked by hurricane. The price is up, but only by about 15 cents per gallon.

The other interesting thing is that the gasoline price varies widely from one gas station to the next. Kroger might be selling gas for $3.40 per gallon while the Shell next door is selling for $3.80 per gallon. I assume the differences are due to the variations in present supplies from one gas station to the next and the estimated time until the next truck arrives with more gasoline.

I'm paying about 3.67 cents a gallon right now. The gas prices are going to the top. I don't think we will see lower gas prices for a long time to come. Unless we can get a good president in office, that will look at our needs, work with economy, and work at giving us a break at the pumps. Think, the food prices are going up just the same. God bless this country.

We've seen it as low as $3.56 for regular at the local WaWa gas stations. I paid much more than that a few weeks ago for super in my hot little car. I still have half a tank ago since I don't really go anywhere in the summer, so my next gas station experience will hopefully be less than the $4.20 I saw last time.

Bob - - $3.66 is cheap we went down to $3.83. Today gas dropped over $3.00 a barrel. Why does it take so long for us to see the decreases at the pumps?
Isn't that CRAZY?!? I actually heard some gas station owner on the news yesterday state that it takes longer for the price to go down because they've already paid the higher price for the gas in their underground tanks so they charge us for the gas that's already down in there with the higher price.
But duh, that's the same reason they give about the price going up. That when the price per barrel goes up so does the price even though they paid less for the gas already in their tanks. It makes absolutely no sense and we're totally getting screwed.
Its really pretty simple, greed. They charge us the new higher prices right away, even though they have yet to purchase any gas at the new higher price and, conversely, the are slower to lower the prices so they can make that extra profit as long as they can. They ain't foolin' nobody!

It's funny cause we basically saw ths in action yesterday. It was announced again that price per barrel went down, yet for 2 weeks in a row prices have jumped. Right before the weekend even... hmm can you say price gauging? People were just starting to think they could actually travel here, which would be so good for the struggling economy we still have here.

OK off my soap box now before I get started too far :)

Our gas in Baton Rouge, LA just went down a bit. The lowest I've seen is $3.59 a gallon. This is at Murphy's and you can get $.03 discount by using a Walmart shopping card. I'm hoping this downward trend continues, although I doubt it will ever go back under $3.50 a gallon again. What is crazy is the diesel prices, they are almost $5.00 a gallon.

I hate to slip off-topic but... Wal-Mart has shopping cards? I didn't know that.

I think a gallon of regular gasoline will slip below $3.50 in the next month or so, but not everywhere. Every little bit helps, though.

I've heard that it takes at least two weeks for a drop in the price of crude oil to show up at the pump. Think about it... some oil company agrees to buy crude oil at $125 per barrel. The oil is loaded onto a tanker ship and sails to a refinery. Depending on where the well is (Mexico, Venezuela, North Sea, Nigeria, Middle East, Alaska or even Texas), the oil can take from two to 15 days to reach the refinery. Then it has to be refined into usable products. Once refined, the gasoline has to be shipped to your neighborhood, and that can add from two to 10 days depending on your location.

The price drop will show up eventually and it's REALLY nice when that happens. Pump prices should drop another 20-25 cents at the current cost of crude oil, so times will get better for at least a little while.

If the big drop in the price of crude oil this week sticks around, we can expect to see gasoline drop about 45 cents per gallon. It will take at least a couple weeks for that drop to show up, although I'm all for a 45-cent drop in the price of gas!
