Prices seem to be holding steady: the low is still 1.709 for 87 in my neighborhood, most others are 1.739-1.769 for self-serve. 91/92 premium all over 1.90. Neighbor islands are over 1.90 for 87, 2.10 for premium. But, SUV sales continue on: my sister is looking for a 4-Runner (don't really know why as they're pricey, but she's tight with the buck). If you want Toyotas that badly, you gotta pay the price! |

| Villa Rica, Georgia....Regular...$1.33/gal. and up from there-> | |
| Some retail stations have a 10 cent variance, others 20 cent. I wish some one in the fuel business would read this and explain to us. | |

wilcox- I first noticed the big price difference between 87 and 89 octane when I was in FL last month. There was a 15-20 cent difference between the two that we did NOT have here in CT. I don't think ANYONE can explain it logically! fastdriver |

Always seems +10 cents for 89, +20 for 91 octane. This seems as fixed as the law of gravity. Right now in Phoenix AZ good price is 1.35 regular, a.k.a 87 octane. BTW crude oil back up to 30 bucks, gas inventories tightest of last 7 years. Expect 10 cent or more rise eventually. Andrew |

I spied this Saturday nite. A station, just a stone's throw from where I live, sells 2 octanes, 87 and 93. The price for 87 is $1.34 (not the lowest in the county)......now get this..!...they sell the premium 93 gasoline for $1.39!!!!!! Hello! I want to ask them why, but what if the preceive it as a complaint and raise it to $1.54? I use 93 in my SVT. The brand for the above station is called PETRO.. These stations are in W. Georgia, E. Alabama, and N. Florida...anyone familar with them elswhere? They have the lowest price often, and seem to break out of the ten cent division in grade pricing. Must be a spot market vendor or something.... also seems like a "Mr. Patel" runs alot of them... Know what I mean agtabby, fastdriver?? |

wilcox- YIKES! I think Mr. Patel owns a lot of the gas stations around here too! I've seen that name on some of my gas slips! Is it a common name like Jones or Smith?? Does the state ever go in to test and see if the 93 octane is REALLY 93 octane? They just had a big scandal about this in NY I think. fastdriver |

Supposedly, fastdriver, the State is charged and responsible for testing. I once saw them run volumn test at the pump (many moons ago). I'm gonna give this issue a little priority this week and see what the State does do...... Somebody must regulate retailers. Someone must audit the octane at the pump? Good question... |

| I keep pinching, but no wake up..... | |

Yesterday it was 87 octane $1.69.9, 89 octane $1.79.9 and 93 octane $189.9- back to the 10 cent difference. fastdriver |
