U.S. Dopers: What's the price of gas where you are?

The station where I bought regular for $3.099 Friday was up to $3.399 by Monday! WTF!

The local paper says it’s due to the closing of a refinery in Coffeyville, KS.

The last time the price rose so much so fast was when DOZENS of oilrigs and refineries closed due to Katrina. I don’t buy that just one refinery can have such an impact.

$2.789. :stuck_out_tongue:

$3.19 in Northeastern Indiana.

$3.30 in Madison, up 20 cents while I was at work on Monday.

Yeah - prices in Detroit did that too. Interesting that the news article on that refinery originally said that Michigan was not serviced by that refinery & all of a sudden it is responsible for price increases. Hmmmm… :dubious:

Central ME - around $2.97, unless it’s a Mobil station, where it’s $3.05.

$3.29 - suburban New York

87 octane was 3.01 today at Safeway in rural Northern CA.

Yes, however your options for public transportation are far greater than those in the US and Canada. Most of us, unless you live in the core of a large urban area, have no option but to drive.

$3.119 on Monday.
$3.359 on Tuesday.
$3.159 today.

At about 6 different stations between Santa Fe and Los Alamos.

3.35 in Dearborn Heights , Michigan

Unfortunately, same here Leaffan. :frowning:

£1.02/litre = $7.90/US gallon for premium in the UK today. Public transport IS better, but not universal. My 13 mile commute would take over an hour by train/bus, I can drive it in about 25 minutes. Since my car gets over 50mpg (UK gallon) it’s cheaper to drive too.

Least expensive in the last few days $2.76 at Costco; generally around $2.79 lately. Baltimore and surrounding area, Maryland.

At the gas station across from my house it was $2.98 Monday morning. By noon it was $3.08. By the time I went home after work it was $3.26.

Last I saw it, it was 2.99 for regular. I didn’t register what it was today for sure.

$2.81 in Clearwater, FL

$3.09 (87 oct) this morning at BP in Euclid, OH. yesterday it was at a high of $3.19

Filled up at $3.19 last night. I remember about six or seven years ago when I saw gas for $0.95 in Whittier. What happened?

$3.299

Do you foreigners get charged to three decimal places, which is so stupid!

Remember that they plan on not building new refineries with those record profits, because the capacity won’t be needed.

The only place that I can always count on higher average gas prices across the state is in California. I’m not claiming other places don’t get screwed, we just don’t seem to see the prices drop as much as other places. Wisconsin gets all sorts of excuses thrown at it, beyond the refinery fires.

Note I’m central and there are more expensive areas in this state. One was posted.
