[Einst-Hawk]

Just paid 2.73 for 87 at the QT here

 

[gpking]

$2.99 for regular at the 7-11 out here in the boonies. Costco usually runs 10¢ cheaper, so I'll have to check them out when I'm in town later this week.

My dad said he paid like $2.95 for regular in VA a week or two ago. Back then it was $3.19 here. Stupid Maryland.

Was under $3.00/gallon all through Indy this morning.

 

[dmanns67]

Gas is down another $0.10 from last week. 93 is $3.55 and 87 is $3.19. Hope this trend contiunes. Be nice if 93 hit $3.00 a gallon.

 

[BlazingTrails]

I saw $3.14 for 89 octane in Newnan This morning omw to work

 

[Blckshdw]

Saw $2.99 at the Shell by work. I'll be getting gas in the next day or so, so hope that trend continues!

 

[IllogicTC]

[HARDTRAILZ]

285 I paid and 1 mile later was 319

 

[Purefection]

$1.099 Canadian per litre. 4 litres per gallon. You do the math. This is the cheapest in a while.

 

[Denali n DOO]

$1.099 Canadian per litre. 4 litres per gallon. You do the math. This is the cheapest in a while.

only 3.78 litres per gallon. $1.09 X 3.78 = $4.12 gallon, ya that's pretty cheap.

Here we are at $4.49 gallon regular and $4.98 for premium, my Maxima and Ski Doo use premium

 

[dmanns67]

My friend in South Carolina posted a pic at the gas pump today, $2.69 for 87.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Filled the rig up for 325 on 93 octane

 

[BlazingTrails]

Down to $2.95 for 87 octane
$3.10 for 89 Octane


Should be happy about this but i'm not, according to oil prices right now our gasoline should be around .97 per gallon.

The Oil industry is run by a bunch of crooks! Opec

 

[MAY03LT]

Under $60 for a fill up? What is this place?

 

[felicie]

I've got you all beat $5.249 per gallon

Part of it is probably from the forecasting Goldman Sachs gave it.

A barrel of oil is currently trading on commodities markets for about 80.49 (electronic trading). A barrel of crude is 42 US gallons, so that's about $1.91 a gallon. That is unrefined light crude. Adding in refining and distribution costs, then putting the gas taxes on top of it, the prices make sense. In WV, we pay a little over 54 cents on the gallon in taxes.

Also, unleaded gas is trading on commodities for $2.12 a gallon. This is post-refining, of course. So add in distribution costs and taxes, and tada. It's crazy to look at those prices and think, apparently it costs only about 20 cents on the gallon (this is COMPLETE guessing based on dollar comparisons above) to refine.

In other news, right now coffee is going for a little less than 2 dollars per pound (commodities), while we're still gladly paying $4 for a cup of diluted coffee that used maybe 1 ounce of that pound when we hit Starbucks. So there's the next target of finger-pointing! I'm trying to be ahead of the curve.

I hate to go off on a tangent, but gas buddy prices range from 2.90 - 2.97 on my way to or home from work and in the immediate area of where I live.

If I fill up 18 gallons:

2.90 * 18 = $52.20
2.97 * 18 = $53.46

A $1.26 per tank savings if I take the time to find the cheapest. At 4 tanks a month, I might save $5. I fail to see the fascination with the app. Its like the people who drive across town to save .02 per gallon, but used 3 gallons getting there. Now for traveling or premium gas, I could see a benefit maybe. I always try to fill up if I'm in Missouri for some reason, since its .20 cheaper per gallon. I won't drive there to do it because I probably only break even on it.

One of the grocery store chains around here has gas savings but only on specific items. So like oreos or chips or junk I shouldn't be eating anyway has gas savings. My ass will get fatter and weigh more causing my MPGs to go down so I'll need the gas savings to break even.

I mainly use the Gas Buddy app when I am on road trips and I am looking for 93 octane since I have a tune.

Initially when I moved to WV, I used it a lot to figure out where the closest gas stations were to my new house and who had the cheapest price for 93. Now that I have lived here for a couple years, I figured out that the cheap gas is in Maryland. Since I work in MD, I fill up at the station right outside of my plant.

I agree that it does not make much sense to use 1-2 gallons of gas just to save $.05-$.10 per gallon. I hope people would be smart enough to not drive 18-36 miles just to fill up their vehicle unless it was on the way to or from work.

Grocery gas points is where its at. I save $.10 off per gallon for every $100 I spend at the store. That is for everything within the store.

I pump at Costco and drive 8 miles round trip that are out of my way to save about $5.00 per fill up of 22 gallons on average of reg unleaded 87... I fill up about 5-6 times a month... The Costco that is in the path of my daily commute typically is about 12-15 cents more per gallon... My closest gas station that has good prices and that I pump fuel from time to time is a Chevron and typically that station has fuel about 25 cents more per gallon than the Costco that is out of my way... Savings do add up...

Finding premium makes sense to me. I'm a single guy with no kids so I can't rack up very good grocery store points. I have a .05 per $50 spent at a store near me. I might spend that per week, but usually don't. My parents go to a Kroger store and buy gift cards for Home Depot to rack up fuel points.

12-15 cents more per gallon? Wow. I used gas buddy periodically to look around my area, but I don't have those ranges. Everything near me is close to the same. I could understand your situation.

From my own perspective it seems pointless so its good to see other real world uses of it making sense.

I remember going to Dubuque, Iowa, and there was a gas station that had an extra pump around the back that had something like 101 or 103. It was racing fuel meant to be used in engines built to require this level of octane for the stock car races and whatnot being held around the area. It was also like $6-7 a gallon.

I usually stick to Top Tier stations now but recently filled at one that wasn't a Top since I forgot before heading to town. The place I pulled up to was selling 87 at $2.99. I went with 89 for $3.09 because whatever, why not?

 

[BlazingTrails]

Down to $3.02 for midgrade!

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Got the DD filled at $2.80 for 87 todau

We had a gad station like that in Middletown, Ohio. They sold 103 I believe, but it was like $4-$5 dollars a gallon. This was back in like 2001-2002. Not a big deal since my Civic only had an 11 gallon tank.

 

[gmcman]

$2.57 for 87, $2.95 for 93 today at local Costco.

 

[dmanns67]

Down another $0.10 this week. 93 is at $3.45 and 87 at $3.05. Dont think I have seen gas under $3.00 around here since I moved up here.

 

[Too Fast]

$2.71 all over the place here in Central Indiana. Isn't it fun to post this stuff up when it goes down, instead of up?

 

[Denali n DOO]

Still getting F'd here $4.26 for regular
