How are gas prices in your area?

No, he does not get blame for the rise in price and gets no credit for the decrease.

That’s the point.

The whole “blame Biden” think is a bunch of bullshit.

Interestingly, in Canada, the right wing morons are blaming Trudeau for the world increase in gas prices.

There are actually 2 stations near to me that usually have lower gas prices than anybody else. Now gasbuddy reports that they have regular for 3.99.

A few miles away, in Chicago, gasbuddy reports 2 Shell stations at 5.60.

(edited to fix typo)

In my local area, it seems to be going back up. A coupla three weeks ago, the lowest station was $3.64, now it’s $3.99.

Cheapest near me in central New Hampshire is $3.93.

$3.19 for unleaded, and $4.20 diesel (Fort Worth, TX). Things are getting better around here. I hope it lasts.

I filled up in suburban Chicago last week for $3.99. The station closest to my house (within the city limits) started at $4.99 as of last night.

There are two stations about three blocks from my house, in suburban Cook County (outside of Chicago): one is currently at $4.69, the other at $4.71. When I was out in DuPage County (which has lower taxes) on Friday, it was just under $4.00 in several places.

In San Jose I’ve seen $4.99/gal in a couple of places. The Chevron right around the corner from me is still over $5.50. So yeah, prices are down, but still more than $1 more than a year ago.

The Costco in SE Michigan is holding stead at $3.66 a gallon for regular. I’d be happy to see it under $3 a gallon but this will do for now.

$4.209 still, this morning.

Seattle shows being up 3 cents this week (why aren’t you now called Johnny_Seattle I wonder). What you are seeing is price cycling by certain chains, whose retail prices got too far below their wholesale costs, tho 31 cents seems a bit excessive.

Here (NE Florida) the cheapest premium prices can be found at half a dozen Murphy USA stations, but they all cycled up 10 cents or so this week.

What I hate is countywide cycling, where all the Gate stations all go up at once to the same level, and every competitor feels compelled to follow suit. But they’re insanely predictable, doing it at 1 pm on a Tue afternoon 75% of the time. They haven’t tho since the start of the crash. They couldn’t get away with that shite if most everyone just paid attention, but they don’t.

Had to LOL on my recent trip to the Carolinas this past weekend. As detailed in this post, Gasbuddy has a veritable army of stay-at-home price reporters who hardly ever document an actual station in person. But given the declines I assumed any reports would be too high, being out of date by several days as prices continued to fall. [Irrespective of cycling, and since the regular prices are what I first key in on, a nonconsideration here]

How wrong I was.

I drove up to a Shell which Gb insisted was 3.89. Imagine my shock to see it saying 4.19. Was pretty confident because the spreads were 30 & 30, indicative that all 3 had been reported recently (vs. reg. being current, plus 5 days out of date, and premium 9 days, say). So any surprises would thus have to be pleasant ones, I fallaciously concluded…

What actually happened of course is that one of our Fearless and Peerless Homebodies had dragged the plus and prem. prices out of their festering ass when they saw that they were blank on Gb, assuming 30 cents were “reasonable” spreads. Recall it would now take at least a dozen correct reports to override the bullshit ones. Earlier I did find a Shell which was accurately reported with 35 cent spreads…

Assholes.

I was living in L.A. when I registered. Also, I don’t live in Seattle and ‘Johnny Almost Canada’ doesn’t sound right. :wink:

$3.30ish in the Augusta, Ga area at Sam’s and Costco.

The Valero that I mentioned last week at $3.09 is now back up to $3.24. Most other stations are still around $3.25-$3.30.

SE Texas

I haven’t seen below $4 in the lakes region or the NH/MA border or on the seacoast yet.

But you can see it hasn’t really kept me from doing a lot of driving the past 2 weeks :smile:

Outside Little Rock 3.30 to 3.40 is common.

I paid 3.34 this morning.

Around $4.299 on base for regular a few weeks ago, down to $3.599 last week. Yesterday it was $3.559.

As of this afternoon, it’s still around $4.70 in suburban Cook County (outside of Chicago). Out in DuPage County, where the county gas tax is lower, some stations are under $4.00 now.

$3.059 at Costco and a few other stations locally. Today for the first time in a long time I saw diesel at $3.999. Murfreesboro, Middle TN.

StG

$3.999 in Ferndale this morning.
