Middie's thread on higher gas prices was interesting and I was wondering, with everyone scattered all over, what do you pay for gas?
Our gas down here in nowhere land is $2.24 a gallon.
It will go down to $2.14 and then back up again. The most it has been so far is $2.48.
 
I have to convert liters to gallons. If I am not mistaken we are paying $3.71/US gallon.
 
Gas went up today, to $2.599/gallon US. It jumped up from $2.469/gallon US just today. Gas prices here are alway 10¢/gallon higher than elsewhere in Southern MI, and I can't remember why.

I've noticed lately, that, the price at the pump goes up, holds high for a couple days, go down a little for about 24 hours, then shoots up again, higher than what it was. It's been doing this now for 2 weeks. I have no idea when, or if, it's going to end.

When I went to the store this morning, it is $2.36 now.
Your right, it's been doing this for about 2 months here. Gas pump roller coaster.
 
Well, this morning, I was headed to work, and I saw several different prices for gas. I was really interested in seeing what the Admiral station was, as they "usually" are the last to raise prices, and the first to drop. Well, their price was $2.569/gallon US. However, the Clark station across the street apparently NEVER went up, and were doing land-run business with gas at $2.459/gallon US. A quarter-mile south, a BP station was completely vacant with $2.599/gallon US posted.

When I came home, most stations were at $2.569/gallon US, while the one Admiral station was now down to $2.459/gallon US, and the Clark station was unchanged.
 
They are outrageous for this area and I don't see an end in site.

Danville, IL averaging 2.38 a gallon
Covington, IN averaging 2.49 a gallon
 
I certainly can't understand what is going on, but I'm afraid there is going to be a real problem if prices don't settle down.I think we are all going to feel the pinch very shortly.
 
Personaly I want to move out of this state. For gas it's not good. I feel for the people who live in California. It's worse
 
It was $2.59.9 at Costco today. That's less then other gas stations in the area of Sacramento Ca.
$2.79.9 for the higer grade.
