It is super cheap here too...well not SUPER cheap considering it used to be like $.50/litre...but here it has gone down to like $.75/litre at night time
During the day its about $.79 per litre or so...That is way cheaper considering in the summer it went over $1.00

I saw some places near the border for NC (still in SC) that had it as low as 1.78, by my house its around 1.83 for the last few days.

The lowest is $1.83 (by school) and the highest I've seen is $1.95 (around the corner from where I live).

It's been like that for 2 weeks here!


In addition, a local city just passed a permission/grant/whatever to begin drilling for oil here.

I got gas on Friday and it was $1.99. I do not know if it will get "cheaper" or not. Wisconsin has very high taxes on gasoline-around 54-56 cents/gallon.
Its a nice psychological boost when that first digit is a one though instead of a two!!

I can't believe how much higher WI gas is than MN. Whenever we go to LaCrosse (30 min. from here) its always at least .50/.75cents MORE than us!

I believe it's still around $2.49 a gallon here (according to a website). I don't pass any gas stations in my neighborhood, nor do I own a car, though, so I don't worry about it!

Wow you guys are lucky. In MA, atleast where I am, it's still over $2.15. I only fill up every few weeks or so because I don't have a very long commute and with being on disability I haven't driven much at all, so I don't pay attention to prices. Today though I had to fill up and I think I paid $2.27. I haven't seen prices under $2 in almost 2 years.

I miss about 7 years ago when the cheapest around was $.87

I think it's around 70 cents here. I remember and miss the good ol' days when gas was cheap.

What area are you in? (Not directly what city, but the area). I'm in the Fitchburg/Leominster area, closer to the NH border. I'll have to look today when I go out and see what other stations are charging. Like I said even when I go back to work I'll still be driving an average of maybe 6 miles a day (I'm shedding a tear..really)
and I'll probably only fill up every 2 weeks if that, so I don't really pay attention. My wife on the other hand who commutes over an hour to Lowell and fills up twice a week knows too well what the prices are

I am in Bristol County, between Providence, RI and Fall River.

My husband commutes 1+ hours to Hopkinton, so he is constantly filling up

Wow why are gas prices so much lower everywhere else? It's been $2.49 here for the longest time. It's so unfair how certain places are so high, and then others are so low.

Earth for now <><
Just paid $2.11 but my car manuel says to put in 87 oct. The lower oct was lower. Can get away with that with the wife's car.

Trowe Price New Era is my largest stock holding.

I'm long term bullish on natural resorces.

Might as well make some money off of my own pain at the pump.
