Damn west coast cost of living. At least sports are on earlier.

Whoa, $1.995 in NYC??? Which no-name station are you guys going to for that price? I'd say it's more like $2.095.

user-pic

up another 5¢ in NW CT. $209.9 was the cheapest i found yesterday.

user-pic

@mac-phisto: WOAH! holy misplaced decimal, batman! should be $2.099.

user-pic

Detroit checks in with $1.95

user-pic

Can you please add Washington DC to this list as you continue to make updates? I'm surprised nothing between New York and Miami is on there . . . .

@MormonChristmas_GitEmSteveDave: meaningless without seeing last week's price next to it.

@thnkwhatyouthnk: Yeah, I'll believe 1.99 in NJ, but not NY. I haven't seen anything less than 2.10.

@nakedscience:

Yea, thats why up the street on 7th and the 101 I'm seeing it for 1.79.

I think we should price it at $3.50 and hold it there. That way we all get used to where it will be, should be and eventually - won't be anymore.

We'd raise money to fund new energy, incentivize folks to be more economical, if not environmental, in their use of personal transport. Perhaps we'd even help business to pursue the Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) option.

I'm not big on taxes, but it just stands to reason we need to make changes, were moving in that direction as a "herd" when prices were higher this past year or so - and have now gone back to complacency.

1.78 in Indianapolis this morning . .. wow guess we will go up soon. . .

@Barry Martin:

I think $3.50 is far too high. Especially considering the price of crude is at the point where in the past gas was at the $1.50 mark. There is no way even the current price is justified.

Hell, here in San Luis Obispo, on the California Central Coast, we're paying $2.37 for 87 octane. Why the hell do people in the middle of the US pay more than $.50 less a gallon when the ports where the oil enters are further away from then than anywhere...

I went past a Getty and a Mobil earlier this afternoon and they both had regular at 2.17. 89 Octane was at 2.27 / 2.29 and Premium was at 2.37 / 2.39. This was in Queens County. I already submitted the prices to the folks at gaspricewatch.com

@noone1569: Damn,I wish I got the OpenVMS System Administrator job a recruiter had called me for. I think they finally found a local person. I'd be saving $$$ big time.

In Joplin, MO price last week was $1.85 in most locations (a few had a few cents cheaper) then today, one place I drove by had $1.79, and they're notoriously the most expensive in town. Dang Ampride locations.

user-pic

@EdenBabararacucudada: IIRC, around 1.77 ish as well. I don't have last weeks fillup receipt.

user-pic

San Diego is about $2.399 at discount stations. LA is always a little less. Does that mean SD has the highest gas prices in the country (considering LA has the highest on this list)?
