Gas Prices in Your area, Let's hear about it.

[Guest Wetnwildbear]

Thats cheap!!!!!!!!!

 

I paid $2.79/gallon in Memphis yesterday at Costco.

 

I paid $3.19 in Philly today for Reg - I usually use mid-grade

[josephga]

2.99 here

[jackhammer91406]

x( What are you paying in your area.

I am just curious.

Talvin

I Paid $3.29 a gallon in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles today. Thankfully I drive a hybrid so the pain is a little less.

This has to be the longest running thread on the Message Board. I'm still waiting for Talvin to show up at an area gas station near me checking prices.

At the gas station around the corner from my place in Brussels

 

1,548 Euros/litre for Eurosuper 98

1 gallon = 3.785 litre

 

Convert EUR/USD http://www.oanda.com/currency/converter/

 

1.548 Euros = 2.049 US Dollar

 

3.785 litre @ $2.049 = 7.76

 

So after conversion I paid $7.76 a gallon (which is just a few cents higher than what I payed back in 2006)

It's kind of a fun and illustrative thread, though. In late 2001, gas prices were captured at $1.28 and today we're over $3.00.

 

Where else can you see a 200% increase in just 10 years?

 

Sometimes it's fun to just watch life as it happens around you, and sometimes it takes a diary (like this thread).

Thank you Steven. Americans don't hear enough of the reality that other world citizens live every day. They're too busy being ugly Americans.

$3.53 for top grade in San Francisco, two days ago

[Guest Ryaan_Morgan]

Gotta love the holidays....Here in NC gas prices were up to $3.24 right before New Years for the regular and now its down to $2.90

having never hit this thread before, i went to see what it was about. i sat here, shocked, realizing that Talvin was paying a dollar-something just over the river in arlington, va! i knocked my keys to the floor, and as i picked them up, i glanced up at the year of his post (i was on my way out to an arlington shell station).

 

you're right, Deej, sometimes it's fun to watch life as it happens around you, and sometimes it takes a dairy (right, PurpleKow?)

 

who knew gas could be so much fun?

$3.29 at a cheap station for regular in mid-city San Diego.

[leigh.bess.toad]

I paid $2.79/gallon in Memphis yesterday at Costco.

 

Memphis? Slumming, glutes? :)

 

Prices around here are all over the place, ranging anywhere from $2.87 to $2.99, but more in the $2.89-$2.91 range predominantly.

[+ glutes]

Yes, The Captain had me down to MEM for his holiday bash. RA1 and Benj provided above par services...

[raife]

There's also these...

 

I'm enjoying all the geographic references and finding out which areas of the country our members reside, but if anyone's interested there's also this and this both of which I've found quite helpful for hunting down gas price bargains.

 

YMMV

[orbital sander]

Weed CA $3.45 per gallon

[seeker630]

Durham NC - 2.97 to 3.02

 

NC has the highest gasoline taxes in the Southeast; whenever I visit my father, 50 miles north of here in Virginia, it's always 15-20 cents per gallon cheaper there.

[+ deej]

Simi Valley, CA

 

$3.35 today

[orbital sander]

Weed CA $3.46.9 per gallon

[+ Charlie]

$3.39 for regular today at my local Union 76 station in Palm Springs. Now I'm glad I bought that Prius last March when my Toyota dealer had no customers.

[leigh.bess.toad]

Sort of sums up the whole thing, doesn't it?

Time to resurrect this beast.

 

After quite a while around/over $4/gallon, I paid $2.99 in Ventura County, CA today.

[+ azdr0710]

ahhh, this venerable thread...now 13 years old!

 

about $2.70 at Costco here in Arizona...

 

that's a good price for California, deej

[bigvalboy]

HA! Never seen this before. Damn, what a beast is right.

 

Well I might as well add to the mayhem.

 

OK about $3.49 in FTL for premium. Costco is a little cheaper, but I hate the lines, and it's 4 miles away. Not worth the trek...

Mine was the second post in this thread, thirteen years ago, so I was curious to check what I was paying then: $1.38 for hi-test, in Philadelphia. The other day I paid $3.37 in Hemet, CA, for regular, and thought it was a bargain.

[rvwnsd]

I just paid $3.19 for regular unleaded at Valero and Chevron is $3.29 in mid-city San Diego. Down the hill in Mission Valley, it costs $3.69.

As I drove from downtown San Diego through Mission Valley and Hemet to Palm Springs, I saw those three different prices. Crazy!
