Lorton, VA Texaco- 89 octane $1.61.9
Dillion, SC South of the Border- 89 octane $161.9
St. Augustine, FL Exxon- 89 octane $166.9
Lake Worth, FL Mobil- 89 octane $166.9
Lake Worth, FL Chevron- 89 octane $1.71.9
Saint Augustine, FL Shell- 89 octane $161.9
Dumfries, VA Shell- 89 octane $157.9
Branford, CT Mobil(today)- 89 octane $175.9


One thing that I noticed after I arrived in FL is that the price between 87 octane and 89 octane was 15-20 cents MORE! WHEN did this happen or haven't I been paying attention since I started using 89 octane a few weeks ago?

indydriver-


I know. I had been using 87 octane right along, but decided to try the 89 octane to see if my mileage would improve. So far, it seems that it has. I'll keep monitoring it to see if it really helps.

From 1.519 a couple weeks ago to 1.719 this week.


...for 87 octane.


Far western Chicago suburb.


I can only imagine how close gas prices are to $2 in the city itself.

Regular is $1.56 at my gas station on Capitol Hill, DC. It seems to be going up up up!


At one point, I kid you not, the prices were posted on whiteboards above the pump so that it was easier to change the prices!

gas was down to 1.219 for 87 octane a couple weeks ago. Last week was 1.499 everywhere, now this week there is 8-10 cents variation depending where you go. Gassed up yesterday at the ubiquitous SuperAmerica for 1.429. But Memorial Day is coming, and I'm sure 1.50 will be as cheap as it gets this summer...

After holding steady at 1.65-87 for weeks, it's now come all the way down to 1.57! Hey at this rate, we might see 1.50 gas by summer. Wow. There still seems to be a 10-cent spread between the 3 grades. Cheapest premium still 1.75.
