Gas Price

Dutch2 · September 2006

Not sure that I understand the why but our local price for a gallon of gasoline, both regular and premium is down to $2.09. Considerably lower in the past few weeks.
I understand that September is energy’s usual trough. School’s on, vacation traveling is at a minimum, windows are open and the AC is off, and sunlight still fills the house until after supper. So maybe folks are just using less... supply and demand?
When it takes 30+ gallons to fill the ole vehicle it really makes a difference. Middle of last week I filled up at $2.29 and was happy to see that decline, now already at twenty cents less.

The cheapest I saw on my way home today was $2.76 for regular. We live about 12 miles, as the crow flies, from the PA border and their gas is about 20 cents per gallon less than ours - about 10 cents of that is NY taxes. We can't figure out why ours is still so high. Somebody is making good money off us.

The lowest I've seen locally is $2.29 but we're in a tourist area (Myrtle Beach).

There is a guy in Philly that will be selling gas for $1.49 starting Friday. He will sell it for that price until he runs out.

Here in Central MO most eveyone is at $1.99. However, the downward motion seems to have stalled out. I don't understand that now that the prices are lower Regular and Higher Octane are both the same price. Filled up last night with 30 gallons and it was just under $60.00.

I filled up last night too at $1.92/gallon. It was great! All the other places had gone up to $2.15 for absolutely no reason that I could see.
