RUG has been stable in my area  $2.75. The oil speculators have been doing their best to repeat last July's rape of the American driver but to no avail. When oil hit $73 a short time ago I was worried we'd see a repeat of last summer...but then some one blinked. First came the wild swings, up $2 one day down $2 the next. Then today the dam broke, down almost $3 and down some more after hours. Just like last year the speculators house of cards is falling. Get ready for $36 oil and $1.75 gas by fall. I'd like to see all these greedy bastards in the cell next to Madoff. |

Our prices have risen to $2.60 since last weekend by $.16 based on average price for all area stations per daytongasprices.com. The prices at the low competitive area have risen from $2.32 to $2.60, a more drastic swing than the average shows. BUT I was wrong last week when I predicted since prices didn't rise last week on Thursday they would rise this week (typically Tuesday) and I thought we'd go for the $2.99 ceiling. Didn't happen. Of course, I'm glad to have been wrong--lots cheaper.

Sunoco at Rising Sun & Lonshore in NE Philly: RUG = $2.61 down 2 cents. Ultra = $2.89 down 4 cents. |

another slight drop, 87 and 93 octane at the local Shell are down to $2.579 and $2.879, respectively. And with the Mopar show in Carlisle coming up this weekend, I hope these prices stay (relatively) low! Last year around this time, I filled my NYer up with 93 octane at $4.319 per gallon. And when I got off the main road on my way to Carlisle, I stopped and topped off because I found what I thought was "cheap" gas, at "only" $4.099 per gallon.

| Got a 4th of July greeting from a friend that moved back in the Austin area. Said he filled his Lincoln for $2.31 per gallon. Does not miss CA prices or politics. | |

Gas took another drop in South Central PA from $2.59 to a range of $2.49-$2.55. I guess the speculators jumped the gun in trying to get oil back up over $70. they'll have to wait until next year. |

Prices dropped from about $2.75 for RUG down to $2.59 in one week. Looks like I may be right about my prediction. Oil took a big hit this morning, down another $2.50/bbl. I guess this time around the speculators couldn't find any moms & pops to pass their overinflated options on to. Good. Let them choke on 'em.
