There were a few posts about gas prices in the ‘Russia invades Ukraine’ thread. I thought I’d start a thread to see how gas prices are across the country and world.
Prices at the Lummi gas station were probably the second- or third-lowest in the area. I think they may have been a little cheaper in Lynden, but that’s a 20-mile round trip. Costco’s prices are lower, but I usually need fuel before they open. It’s also a 40-mile or so round trip, so I wouldn’t go there just to refuel. A couple/few weeks ago, the price for Regular at the Lummi station was $3.45/gallon and the Price at Costco was about $3.36/gallon. I forgot to check Lummi’s sign yesterday, my my wife said Regular was $4.05 several days ago. I refuelled at Costco yesterday, even though I had at least ¾ of a tank, and Regular gasoline was $3.94/gallon. Ever other sign I’ve seen, it’s more than $4/gallon. The Shell station off the freeway at our exit was $4.40/gallon. I’ll be glad when I get my Prius back. Driving the Jeep is expensive.
UK here; my nearest place for petrol was charging £1.58/l this afternoon, which, according to some online converter I found is around $7.92/gallon.
I did find it cheaper at a local supermarket on Friday, but even that- £1.49/l - was more than I’ve ever paid before, and it went up 1p while I was shopping… It was about £1.25/l not long ago.
Since others have noted their locations, I guess I should as well. NW Washington State, just below the Canadian border. The nearest ‘big city’ (pop. 90,000+) is Bellingham, about 25 miles away.
I was going to fill up The Toy last week as it’s been sitting the winter in the garage with an almost empty tank waiting for the warmer weather. I got tied up with work & never went out. Gas is up 34¢ in less than a week.
