Being that it's arrival weekend here at Penn State, prices are kind of jumpy at the moment as a lot of Mom & Dads are going to have to fill up to get out of town (NO... that kind of price manipulation NEVER happens, just ask them)
Up 4 cents to $2.63 at most places, up 3 cents to $2.54 at Sam's
Just back from a trip to NYC area. Saw $1.85 for RUG in Ramsey, NJ. Paid $2.39 along I-80 this morning, and it's sitting at $2.55 here in State College.
Filled at Costco for $2.99, first time under $3 bucks in a good while. State Senate just approved a 12 cent gas tax hike. I guess some state must have passed us and CA cannot be outdone on taxing. Diesel holding at $2.49 last couple weeks.
We're at 70 cents in taxes at the pump here in PA with another bump scheduled :@
Makes sense, we are currently at 60 cents. Add 12 cents and we get to be the highest until you kick yours up. I hope we don't ever beat your diesel tax. Man they get you good @ 89.7 cents per gallon. We are at 63.78.
Filled up a friend's car for $2.47; later went by the cheap gas area of town and saw a couple of stations at $2.35. Was $2.79 up the road at a small town.
We're moving to the next town north of us (about 8-10 miles) in a couple of weeks; the closest gas station to the new house is also affiliated with a Kroger grocery store. RUG there was $2.649 today; $2.689 at the Kroger near my old house.
I am kind of curious about the logic behind needing an attendant to pump your gas in states like NJ. I'm highly qualified enough to do it in PA, but if I cross the river...

Oregon has the same rules. However, I found they are more than willing to let you pump your own in Oregon.

Really?
That hasn't been my experience, except for a motorcycle and a boat(fiberglass).
I've been reprimanded before by trying to fill my cars, however...
Kind of surprised me as well last trip. Roseburg 76 station. I asked the young man if it was against the law for people to fuel their own vehicles. His answer, no go ahead if you like. Which I did.

Betcha he wouldn't have said that if the owner had been around.
As prices continue to drop pretty much everywhere,we seem stuck at $2.49. And with this being the first of 5 consecutive home games for Penn State, I don't sense any weakening anytime soon with "supply and demand" being the most likely "reason"

Might be cheaper is they quit growing a food and feed crop to make ethanol out of.... Better than MTBE as an emissions additive I suppose.

"But we don't have to pump it"...
/sarc
Instead, we wait up to 5 minutes or more for an attendant to even approach the car.

Legally, it's a pretty big no-no.
I see no indication that Oregon will change their "direction"
On the other hand RUG is $1.97 locally and if I wanted to go a bit out of the way can get it for $1.91.

There's an oddball Shell in Las Cruces that has RUG for $2.49, mid grade for $2.69 and premium for a whopping $3.06.
Haven't checked the truck stops on the Interstate here, but diesel in town is running around $2.55.
Hoping it'll drop another dime before I need to fill. Save another buck.
