cents in the last two weeks. What happened? Holiday gouging I guess.

This thread is not at all what I thought it was

About $3.59 here in Aurora.

in my little corner of NE Ohio. It's unusual to see such a price spread here.

$3.89 on the freeways

I was there a few weeks ago. Left on a Friday and it was $3.55. Returned the following Monday and it was $3.72. A couple days later it was $3.89. (oil had gone up a few $/bbl that week).

In FL, prices went from $3.29-ish to $3.35-ish.

It's nearly US $8/gal here in the UK

It was the first time I'd seen any over $4.

It was a place (Safeway) where it's usually among the lowest, so I saw that and thought I'd better get it there, assuming it would be higher elsewhere.

But as I contiued in to work, the other prices were still showing at $3.79 0 $3.99.

... are "down for scheduled maintenance" just as the "switching to the summer blend" price gouge hits. At least that's the lie they are using for ripping us off this time.

I paid 3.79 on Tues. afternoon and Wed. the posted prices in Minneapolis and environs was 4.19

Crazy.

I paid $4.07 a galllon.

Thankfully, my drive to work is only 5 miles.

Fortunately, I had just filled up with a 41 cent/gallon savings from a local grocery chain.

I'm running on fumes right now. Gotta check and see if we have any "points" left on our card for a tank of gas.

those you don't normally use, it's a good deal.

I've had as high as 57 cents. For young families that buy a lot of groceries, this could run over $2 pretty easily. It's surprising how fast the points add up.

But she shops there a lot. We don't shop there much but have started to with the gas card. Like you said, we have to be careful not to buy just for the points.

I admittedly don't shop around ... I just go to my favorite gas station (when I am not on the road)
