What are the cheapest gas prices in your area?
I can get regular for $1.43 a gallon here in the Portland/Vancouver area.

gyt_fx · #2 10-21-2003, 01:15 AM

I think it is about the same here (20 min south of Olympia, WA)

But why is diesel much less than regular gas? I believe it to be 20 cents less, although that is what I heard from a friend so I am unsure about teh credibility of that.

We are generally in the same region...
Whats it like in places like California? or Montana...

We're at $1.51 here.

For a while every station around was about $1.80 except for 3 near my house each running in the $1.50s.

The lines near my house were huge.

Boy, you Americans still have it good. Here in the Netherands, we currently pay 1.149 Euros for a liter of gasoline.

1.149 Euros works out to US$ 1.338. One gallon equals 3.7854 Liters, so we come to a total price of: US$ 5.065 !

I never realized we actually pay more than five dollars for a gallon of gasoline 9regular unleaded)!

Jervoise · #5 10-21-2003, 06:55 AM

It's sometimes gets up to $1 Australian/litre, but unleaded petrol costs about $0.90/litre at the moment -- $3.40/gallon.

The dollar is trading at almost 70c US, which makes it $US 2.38/gallon.

Remote country Australia, about $0.98-$1.10 depending on whether it's tourist season or not. Not sure about prices in the city, I haven't had to go to one for a while.

And i don't mean we hunt tourists when I say 'tourist season', although that would be good stress relief...

dwc1970 · #7 10-21-2003, 07:28 AM

We're down to $1.67/gallon here. It peaked at $1.85. A recent news report I read ranks Idaho as 10th highest in the nation for gas prices.

eenerms · #8 10-21-2003, 09:52 AM

.27 US cents a liter in KSA, so a little over a buck a gallon.

NurseCarmen · #9 10-21-2003, 11:06 AM

$1.59 in Minneapolis. It's moving into heating oil season, so they'll probably go even higher soon.

FairyChatMom · #10 10-21-2003, 11:19 AM

$1.46 is the cheapest in Orange Park. But I haven't seen diesel under $1.50 - gotta ask the kid - her car uses diesel.

Missy2U · #11 10-21-2003, 11:47 AM

$1.60 NW Burbs of Chicago. And winter is coming - we're all anxiously waiting for NiCor (natural gas for heating) to really jack up their prices so we can freeze - one winter several years ago, I had gas bills of $350 per month.

Doctor Jackson · #12 10-21-2003, 12:04 PM

I paid $1.32/gallon for regular unleaded yesterday. Georgia gas prices are usually among the lowest in the US.

$1.57⁹ in Annapolis and the outskirts of DC.

Inside DC it jumps to $1.79⁹.

TheLoadedDog · #17 10-22-2003, 05:42 AM

About A$0.80 - 90 per litre in the cities in Australia.

I've done the metric and currency conversion for you, and you're looking at around USD 2.26 per gallon.

NE Texan · #18 10-22-2003, 12:40 PM

Around 1.55 - 1.58 in southern NH.

MaryEFoo · #19 10-22-2003, 07:48 PM

Down to $1.73 in San Jose. Usually 20-30 cents more on I-5 down the Central Valley where there isn't a lot of competition. I saw it as high as $2.43 there earlier this year.

It's still 15-20 cents more than it was last year.

j_sum1 · #20 10-22-2003, 11:02 PM

New Zealand swings fairly wildly between $NZ0.90 and $NZ1.15 per litre. At the moment it's around $1.06 last I looked. That converts to $2.44 in USdollars per US gallon.

My car uses diesel and that works out at $US1.36 plus road tax.

Another one. Huh???

Oh dear. Oh dear. Multiple windows open.

What does this have to do with "burp!" ??

kniz · #24 10-23-2003, 10:49 PM

Regular is $1.35 here in Tupelo (filled up yesterday). That means it is most likely a few cents cheaper in Memphis.

Violet I believe that is a misleading title and action should be taken.

I thought the title was a gas.

It's not much better in Germany:

1.049 €/liter ($4.624/gallon)

pipper · #27 10-30-2003, 08:23 AM

Just got back from southern Spain. Prices there were .81 Euro/liter (US $3.52 per gallon).

bughunter · #28 10-30-2003, 03:33 PM

In the LA area, the cheapest I've seen it this week was $1.639 in Pomona, at the Shell on Arrow Highway and White Ave, near the LA Fairgrounds. This area consistently has some of the lowest prices in the count, outside of the immediate vicinity of the refineries in Long Beach.

And fortunately, I work here.
