Have they been going down everywhere? What are gas prices like where you are? In San Antonio, they range from $3.21 (the cheapest I've seen so far) to $3.45. $3.41 is the most commonly seen price around town.

Out in Cali I am still paying almost $4 a gallon. I hope that the greed of OPEC will push the world in the right direction for cleaner technologies.

ScaryDangerous · #3 2008-10-06, 20:28

what time of the year do you guys expect gas to be at its cheapest.

Euda · #4 2008-10-06, 20:30

Gas stations here dropped their prices on Saturday.

xilikeeggs0 · #5 2008-10-07, 04:26

I'm glad I waited to get gas; I found it today for $3.16 a gallon at a Shell.

DEADBEATDAD · #6 2008-10-07, 04:32

3.87 is the cheapest.

RedShift00 · #7 2008-10-07, 20:08

i got 2.87 at some spots here in warrensburg.

I've been looking at gas prices right about 3 dollars at the cheapest here in southwestern ohio.

grusomhat · #9 2008-10-07, 21:11

The highest they got was around $2.18. They have now fallen back down to $1.89. It's really good too see it heading that direction. High gas prices were what we needed though. A lot of good is/has become because of them.

Oh sorry, $NZD and those a per liter prices.

Idiosyncrasy · #10 2008-10-08, 00:28

I saw prices in the 2's today. $2.98, $2.97, $2.93, stuff like that.

The Last MentleGam · #11 2008-10-08, 01:09

They definitely seem to be going down, but I'm not sure how long they will stay that way

almightyares · #12 2008-10-08, 02:09

Wow...this is only on every fucking news channel from CNN to your local news.

23 · #13 2008-10-08, 02:59

regular is like $3.69 in the tristate area.

NY, NJ, CT

Bckpckr · #14 2008-10-08, 03:24

On the way home from work today gas averaged $3.34 to $3.29 per gallon.

Had peaked at a little over $4 in September...now I'm seeing shit like $3.29. Price of oil has come down because of this "economic crisis." And for some reason, high gas prices seem to be related to summer and the travel it brings. So I bet they'll keep going down and level off at $2.something for the winter.

You guys are getting absolutely ripped on your gas.

I thought they measured your usage in cubic metres or something too.

$3.29 is $3.29 per American gallon. Or English gallon, whatever the hell it's called. Not the other one, imperial.

It's gone to the 2 dollar a gallon mark. About 2.80. Haven't seen gas prices that cheap in a very long time

.

Synkk · #20 2008-10-09, 21:36

3.21 per American Gallon here in rural Virginia.

It's been steadily decreasing the past week or so.

Also, I've figure out that gas prices don't matter unless you're buying more than $10 worth.

Except for the fact that 10 bucks used to buy you more than 10 gallons, and now it will buy you about 3.

Yeah, but seeing as how prices are only fluctuating by about 10 cents at a time, you can only buy 2-3 gallons for 10 bucks, but the amount is higher if you buy ~$50

Get what I'm trying to say?

danzig · #23 2008-10-10, 03:26

it's getting close to election time, yes sir...

I guess. But it doesn't matter if you're getting a couple gallons every other day or a tank every other week, it all evens out to be the same. You're only leading yourself into an illusion by making multiple small fillups by thinking that it isn't that bad.

Fanglekai · #25 2008-10-10, 19:56

$2.82 in kansas for regular unleaded. Time to fill up.

flatplat · #26 2008-10-11, 07:03

We were reaping the benefits of dropping oil prices for a bit - Around here, in June it was hitting about $1.70 a litre but then fell back by about 25c
But since the dollar plummeted this week, we wont feel the full benefit of any further oil price drops until it recovers.
(The prices have probably started to rise already - but I haven't used my car in nearly a fortnight, let alone fueled up, so I don't know)

whitelightning · #27 2008-10-11, 08:54

Bush had a hand in this bullshit...he is OIL. OIL went up........Bush is getting ready to be lame. OIL FALLS.

ECONOMY CRASHES. BUSH LEAVES RICH. entire global economy sucks.....why is that?

Jizzmeister · #29 2008-10-12, 10:54
