Your Gas Price

[Crothian]

On the way home from work, I saw prices from $3.09 to $4.99. Lines at the pumps were out into the streets. The idiots who believed there was a shortage actually managed to cause a shortage. Mob mentality.

Gas price is currently 3.06!

Lady IronWolf reports Bubba's was at $3.09.

i'm having flashbacks with the gas lines.

i couldn't help but think of playing D&D.

heck, we used to play pinocle, bridge, poker, and other real card games for money too then. but i gave all that up for D&D mostly....

These are broken gas lines encouraging the craving, diaglo?

When I got gas on the way home tonight the sign had already been changed to $2.919 USD/Gal but the pump was still at $2.819.

As for the effects of the hurricane, heck, I could have told everyone two weeks ago that this hurricane would be the worst thing to ever happen to the country. After all, they named it after my ex-wife!

When I left for work this morning (6am PST) it was at $2.74 for the cheap stuff and when I drove home (3PM PST) it had already jumped to $2.95. I filled up my tank just in case it does decide to go bonkers tomorrow and jump to $4.00 like they're saying it will. Boy am I glad I don't own an SUV or Truck...

It hovers around 3.00 in San Diego. I think we have the highest prices in the nation.

Around $2.89 today - expected to go above $3.00 by this weekend. I've even heard rumors of close to $3.20.

Gas yesterday was $2.39 down here in SC. Now it's $4 or more if you can find gas at all. GA and NC are both just like out. It's crazy.

Where are you in SC? I am in the Myrtle Beach area of South Carolina. On the way to Conway(just west of us), I saw a station at $2.559 with lines literally around the entire place and into the streets. About 45 minutes later, I saw the same station at $3.229 and the pumps surrounded by police cars (about 4 or 5). Not sure what happened, but when I filled up after that, the stations were running out of gas. The one I went to had only super unleaded at $3.099 and was out of everything else. There were countless people pumping and driving away. It was ugly and I saw two shouting matches while I was filling up.

That's not making me comfortable at all. And getting ready to head down to Atlanta tomorrow afternoon....

Gas prices locally run from $2.99 (in a few spots) to $3.99 with Texaco leading the price gouging market here. That's the only way I can "explain" why their gas is the highest of any station I passed on the way home from Greensboro back to south High Point.
