was for $1.53. It was weird because most stations on the way in to work were in the $1.50 ~ $1.53 range, with a couple of stragglers at $1.57. On the way home most had jumped to $1.70 for regular (with the Speedway at $1.79). My usual Jewel was filled to the gills since they were still at $1.50 so I went across the intersection to the Citgo - didn't want to take a chance on having the price jump up on me. Though even $1.70 beats the $4.30 I paid in the summer. There were only a few stations this morning still at $1.50 (Jewel and a Shell), with a Citgo by work at $1.55. Did something happen? Did an IEA report come out stating gas reserves dropped dramatically?

Replying to: jae5 (Dec 12, 2008 4:51 am) This morning the Speedway and other stations were back at $1.79, a 30 cent jump for that station, a Mobile. Although there is no collusion and no pricefixing going on, all the stations who have upped their price on Thursday have chosen $1.79 as the new price.

Replying to: jae5 (Dec 12, 2008 4:51 am) Oil prices slip to below $45 on failed US rescue for automakers (Yahoo). So, that can only mean that the gas stations that jumped up thirty cents overnight are trying to raise some quick cash to pay their bankruptcy lawyer.

Funny, I was on a business trip the last couple of days, and the prices were still low. Yesterday afternoon, I paid $1.49 to refill the rental car at an Exxon in NW Indiana close to the Illinois state line, and even on the I-294 Tollway in IL, the "oases" (service areas) had Mobil advertised for $1.59. Back home in central VA, no changes today: $1.55 for RUG at Hess and Sheetz, $1.52 at BP.

Replying to: dtownfb (Dec 12, 2008 8:02 am) Everyone had gone to $1.79 (outrageous isn't it, after $4.11 ). Now this morning the Mobile went to $1.69. The point is that when it's back to $1.59 on Tuesday, we'll be happy here in W. Ohio. They will have thrwarted the push down to $1.39 and $1.29. |
