Saw as low as $2.459 in Dickson tonite...hoping I can find even better when I head east to the Smokies this weekend.

Still $2.69 locally, but in E. Peoria I filled up at $2.56 last night. Ten miles and 13 cents a gallon different. Bah, humbug! :mad:

During one of our fuel droughts of the 70s, people were travelling halfway across Sydney to buy fuel that was 3/10 of a cent cheaper per litre.

Even dicksbro's fuel is only a bargain if he's already going near the petrol station.

20 miles return trip for a saving of 13c per gallon? Lineball.

We were in E. Peoria for dinner. Didn't drive out of the way to refuel. :)

Well picked.

Dropped to $2.59 locally. Better, but still higher than some of our neighboring towns. Probably will jump today in anticipation of the weekend. :(

$2.55 for regular here.

dicksbro 11-19-2009 04:25 AM

It's jumped back up to $2.65 here. :(

Watching a TV show called "Addicted to Money" which has said that many Westerners have probably bought their last car. It'll be too dear to run it, much less get a replacement.

Just a thought.

dicksbro 11-19-2009 07:01 AM

I just wish our public transportation system was better. :(

Oldfart 11-19-2009 08:07 AM

Don't we all.

dicksbro 12-02-2009 02:17 AM

$2.54 locally yesterday.

Scarecrow 12-02-2009 12:38 PM

Yesterday it jumped from $2.48 to $2.59. thank goodness I bought mine in the morning before it went up.

jay-t 12-02-2009 04:56 PM

$2.49 here

dicksbro 12-03-2009 04:02 AM

It was still $2.54 when I went out yesterday afternoon. Hopefully it stayed there or went down.
