Maybe we'll be lucky and the new congress will raise taxes and carry over the $4.00 mark by summertime. :(

If over $4.00/gal is good enough for the Canadians and the Europeans, then by God it'll be good enough for the US of A!

$2.89 a gal. today, but with the refinery fire earlier this week prices are looking to go up!

sodaklostsoul 05-03-2007 08:16 PM

Most places around here went yesterday to $3.25 but one place close to us was $2.97 this AM. :D

dicksbro 05-04-2007 03:18 AM

$3.19 yesterday afternoon. :(

Have you guys heard of the effort to "NOT BUY GASOLINE ON THE 15th" as a way of protesting the gasoline prices. It's suggested that based on the average cost to refuel a vehicle and the number of possible internet user contacts ... it could be as much as a $3 billion dollar message to the oil companies. True, it's only a day ... but, who knows, it's more than were getting from our elected representatives. :(

jseal 05-06-2007 06:12 AM

$2.85/gal yesterday afternoon. Probably gone up since then.

1nutworld 05-06-2007 08:49 AM

$3.25 was the most common price, I found it for $3.12 so I stopped there. Funny how the same gas was in the storage tanks on Thursday when it was $2.85.

I guess I'll never understand! :banghead:

IowaMan 05-06-2007 09:05 AM

Damn, they should give you a tube of Astroglide with each fillup. :mad:

It was $3.09/gal. here this morning.

Yep, that pretty much says it all. :D

dicksbro 05-07-2007 02:43 AM

Love it, Soda! :D

Wally World was $3.09 yesterday with 3 cents off if you have their card or if you pay cash but have a Sam's Club card.

mikaylasmummy 05-07-2007 05:22 AM

IowaMan 05-07-2007 02:53 PM

I filled up for $2.95/gal. today in Cedar Rapids.

Fangtasia 05-10-2007 01:35 PM

AU$1.22/litre....damn bastards...costing me 30-40/week to run my car for work alone!

IowaMan 05-10-2007 02:15 PM

$3.09/gal. for the cheap stuff in Cedar Rapids today.

Mae 05-10-2007 03:07 PM

$2.95 to $3.15...mix & match around town. Costco is the cheapest. Filling the Durango is right painful. :bs:

That's GREAT Soda! :D LOL

IowaMan 05-18-2007 06:50 PM

I paid $3.37/gal. for the cheap stuff at a bp station in Cedar Rapids today. :mad:

sodaklostsoul 05-18-2007 10:12 PM

I use a 1/3 of a tank round trip to work right now. :(

Scarecrow 05-18-2007 10:21 PM

Price jumped from $3.29g to $3.49g today.

dicksbro 05-19-2007 03:06 AM

Went from $3.18 to $3.24/gal at Wally World. Their station is closing 6/12th. Others tend to be a nickel to dime higher.

jseal 05-19-2007 04:34 AM

$3.05/gal is about as low as I have found here.

My daughter just returned from SoCal where it was $3.67/gal the week before last.

Ever wonder why the price of gasoline / petrol changes as much as is does over relatively brief - 12 month or so – intervals?

jseal 05-19-2007 10:41 AM

Yesterday afternoon I filled the tank at $3.059/gal > $50 (see above)


Today I drove past the same station - $3.039! :(

cherrypie7788 05-19-2007 11:51 AM

We paid $3.22 last night for premium :( It was $48.32 to fill the tank. It's highway robbery.

IowaMan 05-20-2007 05:36 PM

$3.29/gal. for the cheap stuff in Des Moines this morning.

sodaklostsoul 05-20-2007 05:46 PM

Yesterday it was down at least from the other day to $3.34.

dicksbro 05-20-2007 05:52 PM

$3.26 is what I saw yesterday ... not sure about today. Too dang much, that's for sure. :(

IowaMan 05-26-2007 07:37 AM

$3.25/gal. yesterday but since I didn't need to fill up I'm sure it will be around $3.40 when I do have to top it off.

jay-t 05-26-2007 08:26 AM

gas dropped alittle here from $3.24 to $3.13

dicksbro 05-27-2007 03:33 AM

I think I found the reason for the gas prices going up so much ...

A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country.

Well, there's a very simple answer. Nobody bothered to check the oil. We just didn't know we were getting low.

The reason for that is purely geographical.

Our OIL is located in

Alaska
California
Coastal Florida
Coastal Louisiana
Kansas
Oklahoma
Pennsylvania

and

Texas

Our DIPSTICKS are located in Washington, DC :(

maddy 05-27-2007 07:53 AM

Amazingly, while prices climbed throughout the country in the past two weeks, they held steady here. I can't for the life of me figure out why. The prices had been right around 3.23 consistently. I kept meaning to fill up before the holiday weekend price gauging, but forgot. I filled up last night at 3.19. Amazing a price drop on a holiday weekend?
