$1.38 last night in lovely downtown Manahawkin.
 
That ferry is a great trip. We do it at least once a year even if it's just going over for the day. If you get lucky you can get dolphins following the boat.
 
You'll never go too far wrong on gas by following the simple rule of if your trip involves New Jersey be sure to fill up before you leave. When I go up to New England I always stop at the last gas in NJ before proceeding. That tank is good to get me to New Hampshire which also has cheap gas.
 
If you come back up this way at night you can now see Barnegat Lighthouse lit up again. We went to the lighting as did half the county. It's not that big a light but it's still pretty cool that they did it. Replacing the glass surrounding the new light cost more than the light did.

>I just paid $1.47 here at home -- we don't get those funny spikes like Dayton.
 
On Wednesday or so the price spiked from $1.65 to $1.85 in the Greater Area Dayton. But some prices have dropped to $1.79 already.

"...1.4 BILLION DOLLAR light rail system..."
 
There's been talk of something like that in my area. As an advocate of energy conservation do you think it's worth the cost for your city? How many people will have to ride it for it to break even?
 
I like the idea of such a system but I have my doubts about the economics of it.

Sounds pretty cheap compared to the Big Dig mess ($14.6 billion ... and counting).

I can't see how it's going to pay for itself.
 
I'm all for it if it replaces bus routes and allows some people who were driving to now take the train.

Looks like a good sized turn-around on prices.
 
Local cheapo place up a dime overnight to $1.81 for RUG. Most of the majors up a penny or two. Saw a Mobil with premium at $1.99.
 
I guess the majors are slower coming down AND going up.

Switching to all gas--no ethanol by sylviae

Seems as if here in Okla and with the 7-11 gas pumps---they are now only selling 100% gas---guess most of our stations are now on that---don't know what happened nor when but I heard that ethanol was scarce which sent us back to all gasoline now. Price increased also---now around 1.56 and up.
