So what are you paying for gas?
 
With all that is going on with the oil spill. We all have been watching the price of barrels of oil and gas. And as each holiday approaches we wait to see how high the price of gas will go. So with those two factors we are all doubly concerned about how high gas prices will go.

So what are you paying for gas where you are?

Funny thing prices dropped a little before Memorial Day weekend, that's pretty unusual. The BP mess, they claim, is not really enough impact on world supplies to affect prices.

Its back up some here, $2.59 per gallon for regular at some places . The place closest to me is $2.79 per gallon .Prices seem to go up without reason.

Oregon Gas is 2.72 a gallon for regular, and about 70 cents of that is state taxes. The best I saw last weekend was 2.62 a gallon at ARCO. We don't have any BP stations in Oregon anymore. We only have Chervon, Arco, 76, Texaco and the independent stations. Not sure where Safeway and Cosco get there gas from. Also Oregon is not a self serve area. You have to let the attendent pump it for you.

I honestly don't know.

I paid 2.69 at Costco on Saturday when I had to fill a bunch of cans for the generator. I think the Mobile was 2.81 for credit and 2.75 for cash.

Gas is higher here than most areas around us. You can go any direction and see lower prices than you do in Livingston County. Don't know why but it sucks.

Derek69SS 06-21-2010 12:45 PM

$2.69 right now...

The BP rig was a drilling rig, not a production rig, so it has no real effect on the supply of oil *for now*... I'd expect some seriously restrictive legislation as a result of it to come in the near future, which will have a huge effect on domestic drilling.

Around here, prices really fluctuate with where you fill up. There could be 2 stations within 5 miles each other with $0.25 difference in price for a gallon of regular.

I'm seeing avg. of high $2.50s to low $2.60s as of now.

I paid $2.47 for reg unleaded tonight.

chevguy65 06-21-2010 07:52 PM

We are still around 2.99 for 87 octane.
If you search and can drive far enough you CAN find it in the 2.80's but if you have to drive very far it takes the price out of the equation.

It sucks in Idaho, we pay about the highest in the nation usually.

Almost never worth driving out of your way for a cheaper price. Save 5 cents a gallon on 20 gallons equals one dollar. How much did it cost to drive there and back? It's not just the gas price either, people don't consider oil, tires, depreciation on the vehicle.

grandsport 06-21-2010 09:23 PM

I looked on the way home tonight $2.69 for regular.

Chevelle_Nut 06-21-2010 09:50 PM

2.49 here, 2.69 just up the road. I paid 2.96 for diesel tonight, the pump cut off at $100. Ouch.

I have a friend that just sold his wifes 71 Olds convt to a guy from Norway. He met the guy this past weekend. The guy from Norway told him gas there is over 9 bucks a gal. I don't feel so bad paying 2.75 per gal.;)

flash 06-22-2010 07:01 AM
