Down to $2.14 a gallon here in Tulsa, $2.44 for 91 octane.

$2.94/gallon for 87 octane in Golden CO. last night.  Up ~ 20 cents from prior purchase about 2.5 weeks ago.

Paid $2.19 in Indy last week.  $2.49 out at Waterman, IL on Sat.  It's $2.79-$2.83 here around me.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

$2.19 in Wichita, KS should have waited but I needed fuel.

$2.21 for 87 octane in west Michigan.  I'm heading up to Copper Harbor, MI to do some mountain biking next week, I can pretty much guarantee a refinery accident and $3.00 a gallon for the week of my trip!   :P

The six cent difference, say for a 20 gallon tank, means a $1.20 difference.

I don't worry about getting the absolute lowest price around for that little bit of difference. I know people who will drive all over town finding the absolute lowest price gas station, in the process burning up more gas.

I was trying to be funny, I'm driving my wife's Honda Accord, so like a 13 gallon tank. I don't let my tank get below 1/4, so it was a 10 gallon fillup, so I would have saved .60. I was driving to Wichita.

With a .30 cent discount per gallon I filled up for $1.57 per gal on Friday. That was pretty sweet.

Still getting screwed at the pump in Eastern WA. 2.79 for both regular and diesel. Idaho usually runs 10-15 cents a gallon cheaper.

Saw $2.04 this afternoon, of course I filled up yesterday at $2.09

Filled at $2.11 today.  It was $2.09 just down the road a bit.
The lowest I saw during the last downturn was $1.97 at the station selling for $2.11 today.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Yup. I'll go to Costco if there's only a small line, but when it's a 15-20 minute wait with a line out and into the street, I'll go to the guy that's 20 cents a gallon more just because my time is more valuable to me than that.
