Anyone else's gas prices this low?
We don't have the ethanol mix in St. Mary's county so our cost of gas is significantly cheaper than everywhere else. I filled up with 93 octane at $2.69/gallon today. Regular is $2.41. Is everyone else still stuck above $3/gallon for premium?

Re: Anyone else's gas prices this low?
2.50 ish for regular here, but 2.69ish for 93
According to CNN the other day, supposed to hit $2 by Thanksgiving...not sure why the decrease, but then there was no reason to increase in the first place...going to war had no effect on oil supply. Neither did Katrina. |

Re: Anyone else's gas prices this low?
Prices have been down for several days here, well before the Gulf announcement. Not that this finding has any effect on our current prices. It doesn't matte, the treehuggers will try to stop the acquisition of that oil anyway, just like Anwar.

Re: Anyone else's gas prices this low?
I saw $2.63/gallon for 93 premium today, wouldn't mind seeing it come on down quite a bit. Gas prices tend to be lower here in the upstate of SC, I don't know why, but I won't complain.

Re: Anyone else's gas prices this low?
Looks like the gas companies have us brainwashed... one year after gas gets above 2 dollars we are all excited to see $2.70 a gallon!

Re: Anyone else's gas prices this low?
Lowest here in MI was 2.54 at Sunoco i seen. Needless to say, i stopped for fuel. Also keep in mind... Gas prices always rise mid to late spring, and deminish at the end of vacation time towards the end of summer. At least thats how it works here.

Re: Anyone else's gas prices this low?
Its around $2.85 for premium here in Frederick Maryland. Im hoping with this new oil jackpot in the Gulf that prices might just drop a tiny bit more with those good news. They said it wont really drop for 5 years though, they gotta wait till the gulf faciltity really gets up and running...at least we shouldnt see prices climb back up , unless we take over Iran sometime soon ..then we are in trouble.

Yep, pretty sad when $2 a gallon seems like a good deal but I'd be happy as heck if it stayed at $2 for the next few years. |
