Gas price that is....We have $2.85 a gal. here how is everyone else doing? Just a month ago it was about $4.16 here

I filled my van up last night for $2.94 in Plainwell, just south of Grand Rapids.

I noticed that traffic on the highway was running a lot faster this weekend compared to a month ago. Unfortunately, I think cheaper gas makes our driving habits more wasteful.

$2.75 in Stugis Michigan on the way home from the PileUp.

Last Friday when I filled up $3.35 was the best I saw. Boy, $2.75 in MI, what a bargain. Looks like we've been well trained that anything under $3.00 is a real deal.

$3.00 in the town that I'm moving to, still $3.09 where I'm moving from.

Denise...saw you heading west on I-80 Friday afternoon around 5:20 near New Lennox, IL. I was heading east towards Chicago, plus the I-80 'parking lot'....traffic always comes to a standstill.

I paid 2.99 in Pueblo saturday. Here in my little corner of the earth, it's still 3.04.

You guys are doing pretty well. Up here in the corner of the lower 48 we're in the $3.40-50 range. I'll be in Vegas tomorrow, we'll see what it looks like there. I suspect part of the difference is our legislature gave itself the ability to raise fuel taxes at will, so since folks were used to higher prices recently this is a good time to sneak more taxes in.

Enjoy while you can. After the election the ban on drilling will be reimposed, more resources will be diverted to "alternatives" that nobody knows will ever pan out, much less how soon. World economies will rebound, demand rise again, and oil prices will follow. Not really hard to predict, just a reminder.

$2.66 here in Des Moineez.

Grandadeo · October 13, 2008, 04:15:51 PM

As I posted before $3.35 last Friday, $3.17 at the same place this afternoon.

$2.88 in Southern Illinois

Just wondered if diesel is following gas prices down. That's what will help prices for everything else we buy.

We're still around 3.30 in middle Tn. I've heard it's a little lower in Ky., should help anyone coming to GG Bowling Green next weekend.
