Yeah, and as Jay Leno said last night, gas prices have gone down a whole 3 cents recently. That's to offset when it goes up to $8 a gallon by Labor Day!!

Near where I live there are 3 gas stations around each other, a Circle K on one side of the road, and a BP and I think Exxon on other side. At Circle K it's $3.95, the other 2 it's $4.09. It always surprises me when I see people gassing up at the 2 that are $4.09. I just don't get it.

I think people think that BP and Exxon have a better grade of gas than Circle K, so thats the reason they pay the higher price. I buy the cheapest, which in this case, would be Circle K. Gas is gas to me.

Yeah, same here. I know there are some cars out there that require the owner fuel up on only premium because of the warranty. What a rip-off!!

Some people prefer to use premium even though their car don't call for it. Regular gas is so high today, i couldn't imagine having to use premium gas for my car.

Hollow · 07-22-2008, 05:04 PM

the station i've been going to for my job is $3.959.

MonarC · 07-22-2008, 05:24 PM

$3.95

Waaaaaaay to much!

Wow, was that for regular Megan? I've heard that gas is alot higher in California than most places.

Fleet · 07-22-2008, 11:41 PM

It is finally going down from a high of $4.61 for regular to $4.43.

Ever notice that when crude goes up, gas seems to skyrocket overnight. But when it falls again gas takes its dear sweet little old time coming back down?

James · 07-23-2008, 12:59 AM

On the way home I saw it for $3.649 at a BP station. Or, more accurately, bp since it uses lower case letters on the sign now.

OhioGasPrices.com reports two $3.599 sightings, one in Mansfield and one in Ontario (a Mansfield suburb)! Nothing under $3.60 here in Dayton ... yet. (There's a $3.609 on the north side.)

James · 07-24-2008, 01:57 AM

A $3.599 posting has been spotted in Dayton at a Marathon on Needmore Road (north side)! Not only that, on the way home $3.699 was the most I saw! Goodbye and good riddance, $4 gasoline!

There are now six stations under $3.60 in Ohio, including one $3.539! (They are up in the Mansfield area, by the way.)

James · 07-25-2008, 01:45 AM

At OhioGasPrices.com somebody reported a $3.399 price in Belpre, Ohio, on US 50 across from Parkersburg, West Virginia. I don't quite believe it since (1) that part of the state is usually the most expensive, and (2) there is a $3.999 station in the same town, a 60-cent differential.

Oh, and I saw it as low as $3.579 here in Dayton.

.:BF:. · 07-25-2008, 02:17 AM

I saw gas for $3.79 today, er... yesterday, it's 2:11 AM.

BTW, I live in Detroit MI, but that gas price was at a gas station just outside of the city.

It is more expensive in my neighborhood. It got to as much as $4.07.

Chelsea · 07-25-2008, 04:08 AM

Just saw $3.75 here in Lexington earlier on Thursday
