#7802 of 8805 Last fillup by jae5 Jul 03, 2008 (9:15 am)
was on Monday for $4.129 for the truck. It was time for the normal fill-up and right on time because most every station raised their prices Tuesday afternoon by 20 cents, except for the Mobil and Citgo by me. They were actually at $4.099 so I topped off the Cutlass (that should last me about a month). But by Wednesday morning they were the same as the rest. The prices actually jumped faster than I thought (believed they wouldn't go up until Wednesday) but I guess the stations / sellers wanted to start the July 4th gouging, I mean price adjustment, early.

We're sitting at 10.25%, 11.25% depending on which areas of Cook County and the purchase you made. Hope she didn't go shopping downtown...

Replying to: gagrice (Jun 23, 2008 4:25 pm) "...it is illegal to live in vehicles on the public streets..."   And the law in it's wisdom forbids both paupers and kings from sleeping under bridges.   Our elected leaders don't ever want to be reminded when they fail us.   At my local indie station. 87-$4.15                                       93-$4.35   I'm sick.

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Jul 03, 2008 2:24 pm) We're doing geothermal, but the action if over in northwest Colorado near Rangely and then back west towards Green River UT. Lots of work over there in the oil patches.   Dinosaur CO isn't all that far from Sinclair actually (the one in Wyoming ).

#7808 of 8805 Conspiracy? by jipster Jul 03, 2008 (4:46 pm)
Gas in Louisville is 20-40 cents higher than in neighboring cities... about $4.24 gallon. Our governor (Bashear) is asking for an investigation. Says he is going to put pressure on the oil companies to explain why Louisvillians are paying so much more. A fruitless effort to be sure.

Replying to: jipster (Jul 03, 2008 4:46 pm) Is there a special event in the area like Thunder over Louisville?   Out prices have dropped from almost every station magically selecting $4.15 as their price to $4.06 and even $3.99 late this afternoon. All the people filling up to leave occurred yesterday and today.   Replies to this message: gagrice (Jul 03, 2008 7:43 pm) jipster (Jul 04, 2008 6:23 am)

Replying to: imidazol97 (Jul 03, 2008 6:18 pm) Our prices dropped about 20 cents. Costco is $4.35. Filled the LS400 with 91 octane for $4.55. Premium seems like a bargain now.

Replying to: imidazol97 (Jul 03, 2008 6:18 pm) Is there a special event in the area like Thunder over Louisville?   No... that event is the first part of Derby week. But, we are always having big conventions etc. at our Fairgrounds. The only thing I can think of is our city is so much bigger than those surrounding, in the state, so maybe the old supply and demand equation.
