I agree. I’ve been telling all my friends and family(who are glad gas is going down) that the correct price of gas should be(with inflation) around $1.25 a gallon. They look at me like I’m crazy, as if gas has never been this cheap in the past 5 years.
It was $1.09 in my area just 3 years ago.
we’re still in the $2.30 range in southern Maine and coastal New Hampshire, but i won’t consider gas prices “cheap” until it’s back below $1.50/gal (yes, yes, i know, probably never going to be that low again, but that’s my official “stop griping about prices” number…)
Oh dear, I’m tearing up. This is so depressing. 
BTW, it’s around $2.50 here in Baton Rouge. Just a couple of years ago it almost went under $1 in Florida! I miss those days…
I also miss the days (just 3 months ago) when my electric bill was half of what it is now.
I paid $2.19 yesterday. A couple of months ago at the same station I was paying $2.99. It’s been a weird year.
I paid $2.459 last night. Listen, kids, I remember gas at $0.21 per gallon.
Unless I’ve made a mistake in the calculations, but I make current prices in the UK to be around the equivalent of $6 gallon (US).
So I win.
Gasoline, dingdong, not milk. :smack:
2.05 a gallon in McMinnville, Brynda You just have to know where to shop. I’m just waiting for when it gets under $2, too. There might be a party.
I don’t understand. They said after Katrina the price of gas would go up to $5 a gallon or somesuch. How can it be dropping so much?
100-octane race fuel, buddy. 
Because They were wrong.
And it sells newspapers.
Are you sure that’s real gas??
If you smell smoke, I’d hit the old ejection seat…just to be safe!
1.95 in KC,MO
as well
Aw…that stuff’s not really any different from the 91 I put in the old Corolla…
But…but…what about the petroleum refining facilities in NO that were out of commission? No nice, fresh gasoline coming out of NO, they said. Why is the price lower than it was before Katrina? Where’s it coming from?
Well, you folks jinxed us in the Cleveland area… last night gas in my neck of the woods went from $2.01 a gallon to anywhere from $2.19 to $2.25 a gallon…
Hopefully it’ll start back down again soon…
“They” say many things that aren’t necessarily so.
Well, let’s not forget that Katrina was almost 10 weeks ago. Because they’re dealing with flammable substances, oil refineries are built to be easily repaired (“easy” as opposed to rebuilding a microchip factory or an automobile plant).
Best I have seen was $2.28 in BumF__K, Alabama north of here where the inlaws live. Around here at least 10 cents more than that
Ha! Yep, shot up from $2.02 to $2.19 yesterday evening. But I noticed it was back down to $2.09 this morning.
