Gas prices falling
« on: October 07, 2008 - 03:29:04 PM »
For now at least.  in the last couple weeks it has gone from $3.79 or so to $2.95 as of today and still going down.  Looks like I'll be filling up every car I have sitting around.

That's great news for you folks....   :2thumbs:   


We are just beginning to get fuel back in the stations around here..  The station across the street just got a tanker load and dropped his price on regular unleaded from $3.89 down to $3.75.      :banghead:     We still have a dollar a gallon to go to catch up with you.....     :villagers:

I had to check where you were from - Georgia - ah, gotcha.  I listen to WEKL in Aiken-Augusta over the internet and was hearing about the gas shortages.  My in-laws live over near Columbia and were telling my wife about sporadic availability.

Glad to hear things are slowly returning to the norm.  At least Hurrican season is pretty much over.

Southwestern Wisconsin is still around the $3.50-ish mark for regular and my premium is around 3.73 or so.  I would love to pay under $3.50 a gallon for 91/93.  At least it's slowly getting cheaper elsewhere...Maybe WI will catch on soon enough.

Yup, been dropping down here slowly for a few months now. Was at it's highest point $2.29 for 95.
Now it's 1.91 f 95 and is rumored to drop a lot more over the coming months. (figures = per/litre)

pay under $3.50 a gallon, if we paid under $2.50, that would be something

$6 at Wawa.  Much cheaper over the bridge in PA, about a 20 minute ride for me.

not too far off from MD. All I know is that Newports are $6.10, Cowboy Killers are $5.70, and Maverick menthols are $4 something. In northern VA, Newports are $3.85, Cowboy Killers are $3.65, and Maverick menthols are just under $3.
say, are we gonna start discussing gas and cigarette prices around where we all live?
