[Harmeister]

in Billerica, it's 2.69, in boston I've seen it at around 3.21 (on the news tonight).

This, though, takes the cake: http://news.yahoo.com/photo/050901/480/gagb10209010023;_ylt=AokU8lTvh29R.BxMvqx3mcwDW7oF; _ylu=X3oDMTBiMW04NW9mBHNlYwMlJVRPUCUl

How many of you have suv's/trucks that run better than on reg.?
Will you be going for the cheaper or staying with the higher grade?

[Harmeister]

The gas that was 2.69 yesterday at the same station is 2.90 this morning. (of course I filled up today and not yesterday, which sucks)

[SaintHax]

Gas prices in GA have been frozen by the governor.

[Louis85]

Ours just jumped to 3.49 this afternoon. Nice. Wonderful. Great. (damn).

[WokenMan]

$2.88 for 87 octane was the cheapest I saw in S. Arizona
Still around $5.00 for 109 octane

[Harmeister]

you have 109 octane? why?

[Is*it*my*turn]

I think it was about $3.26 when I came home from work this morning. And that was at a gas station in the middle of corn fields. I dunno what it is in Indianapolis. I filled up a couple days ago when it was $2.52. But I drive a Jeep, and I drive over 40 miles to get to work, so its over $50 a week for me to fill up.

[PsychoMan]

This morning it is about $1.25 CAD per litre, which is about $3.98 USD per gallon, according to Google Calculator.

I have to fill up today to go on a weekend camping trip. Owning a hybrid car is really starting to pay off though...

[Harmeister]

The gas that was 2.69 yesterday at the same station is 2.90 this morning. (of course I filled up today and not yesterday, which sucks)
The same gas station is now 3.04 (two days after it was 2.69)

[Brian221]

Milwaukee average is about 3.35 on the way to work today.

[WokenMan]

you have 109 octane? why?

It's racing fuel. It burns more efficiently in my motorcycle so sometimes I use it instead.

Miami
Yesterday, it was 2.96/gallon. I'll have to check and see what it is today.

[sdldawn]

How hard were you hit Sdl? I know somebody else from your area that just got minor damage to his house, lost shingles and stuff. Hope you and yours are OK.

[Bonkman]

Currently, the cheapest I've seen in town here is $3.09 for regular (I'm just north of Santa Barbara, CA which just happens to have the most inflated housing market in the entire USA).

All those people with thier lovely large SUV's and trucks that commute every day to Santa Barbara are now the ones bitching the most about the increase in cost. Too damn bad for you that you bought the gas guzzler in the first place. Learn to carpool with someone in an economy car.

But still, I think there is widespread price gouging across the board here. The west coast does not recieve a majority of it's crude oil from the gulf states.

I've asked my father about just why California has higher gas prices than most other states. [BTW, my father is the vice president of Maintenance for his uncle's wholesale petroleum transportation company (http://www.gnrenn.com (http://www.gnrenn.com/)).] It's because our lovely state has so many environmental restrictions, we have to have our refineries crack a specific formula of gasoline that, supposedly, burns cleaner. Thus, the additional cost passed on to the consumer. The situation on the gulf coast is bad for the gas business, but not as bad as they're leading you to think.

Guess it's high time we hurry up that fuel cell technology, eh?

Sucks doesn't it.

Just spreading what I've heard: There's an all-call to boycott Mobile and Exxon in an effort to get them to lower their prices. If they lower their prices, the other stations will follow suit.

I'm doing it. No biggie.

Don't believe the hype.
If you hear about a boycott through a friend of a friend, there is a 100% chance that it will fail. For a boycott to be successful, it must be organized and publicized. Otherwise, how will people know to participate?
