    You must of missed the thread last month about "cheap" Iowa corn where @fordgirl15 is. :)

    No - I know she lives in Iowa. I was wondering where she was going.

    Ergo my "quotes". :D

    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.

    Ya it pry would be! It should be cheap! I don't know what it is now.

    Saw some for $2.45 yesterday with diesel at $2.47. Just that low at a couple of stations so far.
  • fezofezo Member Posts: 10,386
    Still $2.19 and a twenty cent difference between the cheapest station (Costco) and the most expensive (Shell).

    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

    $3.85 for premium in Petaluma, CA.

    You got San Diego beat by a bit. Cheapest around me is $3.33 for RUG. Diesel keeps going down. I can get it for as low as $2.45 with CC.
  • PF_FlyerPF_Flyer Member Posts: 9,372
    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.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    $1.85 - had to do a double-take. Cheap!

    $2.55 at home eh? Is it a game weekend yet?
  • fezofezo Member Posts: 10,386
    $2.09 and the usual 20 cent spread from lowest to hughest.

    Small drop here in Colorado ... RUG is now $2.759 at the local Kroger. Midgrade is $2.959 and ULSD is $2.459.

    2.199 for RUG, but the add for PUG is now $0.40. OUCH!

    Today's spread...
    87 -$ 2.55
    89 - $2.69
    Prem - $2.89
  • gagricegagrice Member Posts: 31,450
    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.
  • PF_FlyerPF_Flyer Member Posts: 9,372
    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.

    My favorite tax is the "temporary" 10 cents that was added to deal with excessive snow in 1994. Guess that temporary means at least 20 years

    A couple of places about 30 miles away have dipped below $2 - a 76 station and the Costco north of us.

    $2.49 here although Sam's is reportedly down to $2.35.

    2.099 for RUG here at Quick Trip, the magic 1.999 at Sams.
  • PF_FlyerPF_Flyer Member Posts: 9,372
    Still reluctantly moving down here. Another 6 cents to $2.49
  • slorenzenslorenzen Member Posts: 694
    Paid 2.65 for RUG in Cottage Grove, Oregon yesterday.

    "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.
  • fezofezo Member Posts: 10,386
    Closing in - $2.01 RUG. And we don't pump it here, either.

    3.06 for Chevron PUG today, not bad at all.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    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.
  • fezofezo Member Posts: 10,386
    We officially went under $2 here. $1.999 at Costco.

    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... B)

    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...
  • gagricegagrice Member Posts: 31,450
    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.

    Legally, it's a pretty big no-no.

    Fear not.

    I see no indication that Oregon will change their "direction"

  • fezofezo Member Posts: 10,386
    Oh, I can't imagine Oregon not being weird. It's a badge of honor, as opposed to New Jersey where we hang our heads in shame.

    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.

    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"

    Filled for $2.35 Thursday. Went to El Paso yesterday and they are running ten to fifteen cents higher than southern New Mexico.

    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.
  • fintailfintail Member Posts: 58,414
    2.96 for Chevron PUG today. Crazy. I am taking a week off next month, can't afford not to take a little road trip.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    $2.26 here ($2.46 at the "high" stations).

    Hoping it'll drop another dime before I need to fill. Save another buck. ;)
  • fezofezo Member Posts: 10,386
    We've gone under $1.90. $1.89 and dropping like a stone.
