$1.558 per gallon in Decatur Alabama.  Wow.  My wallet is happy.  I suspect Shell Oil's wallet is not.

$1.89 at Costco, while it jumped to $2.29 at my local stations. What the hell, man?

It's usually about 15 cents more at my station than Costco - 40 cents is wack. All I can figure is because both the stations in town are on a minor artery that people take through Idaho and to a couple of neighboring states,  maybe the stations want to cash in on Holiday traffic.

We've seen price increases of about 21 cents/gallon in this area.  We're now up to $1.73-$1.75 around here.
Kind of expected since oil has gone back up over $30 a barrel.

Price at my local Citgo is now at $1.95 a gallon. I think as things slowly start to reopen and people start to travel again the price is going to jump pretty quickly.

Midway between Dallas & Tyler it's gone up ~$0.20/gal in the last week & a half.  That puts it back about where it was before the price drop.

Last couple of times I've been past that turbo expensive Exxon?

The price sign has been out/off for at least 2 weeks now.

Pretty bad when your price is so high that you have to dupe people in to try to sell them gas...

Perhaps that station is really a front for a money laundering operation, drug lab, human trafficking, etc.  They don't want customers; just a very few (and stupid ones at that) to maintain the image.

Beats me, but the sign was on again this morning when I passed by.

Still sitting at $2.99 a gallon.

$1.54 Tulsa area. The lowest I saw locally was $1.38 and it sort of hung there through the bottom falling out and once the bottom was over it jumped up to $1.54 and has stayed there for several weeks. Typical for around here is at least weekly fluctuations but rock solid for longer than normal.

Oddly enough, last weekend the price at my local Citgo went from $1.95 to $1.89. Well, that's not odd because they do 6 cent off weekends.

But that IS odd is that the price never went back up. It's sitting at $1.89 (or $1.83 if the 6 cent weekend is in force).

We dropped from $1.73 to $1.69 at some of the stations in the area.

Just 'cause it's been forever since I last saw this:

They just refurb'ed the local Murphy's station.  Fewer pumps to make room for a small store rather than the original shack.

They added non-methonal nozzles to all the pumps, at about $0.50/gal more than the 10% stuff.  The 10% is at $1.89.

The odd thing is the price for diesel is at $1.70.  I don't remember the last time I saw diesel for less than gasoline.

I haven't bought any in almost a month. My Jeep has been parked since 6/14, the day before my shoulder surgery.
I did see $1.76 the last time my wife relented and took me to town a few days ago.

It's been ever so slowly creeping up here in Northern Virginia.

$2.09 for regular unleaded at the Citgo near me, $2.07 at the Sunoco around the corner, and $2.18 at the Shell across from the Sunoco.

We got up to around $2.09 in this area a couple weeks ago.  We've since crept back down to $1.89 - $1.90.

Murphy's was down to $1.71 for 85 octane, $1.70 for non-farm diesel.

Dropped 4 cents a gallon for regular at the Citgo around the corner from my house. I didn't expect that.
