Central VA by 210delray

Our home county of Albemarle is in the "yellow zone" on Gas Buddy, with prices in the upper $2.30s to lower $2.40s for RUG. But just one county to the west over the Blue Ridge Mountains, it's in the darker green zone, with prices indicated as low as $2.11 or so.
 
There is a BP on my route to work with RUG at $2.33. Also just got back from the Detroit area, where the going rate was $2.39, but I saw $2.29 at one place.

So you no doubt moved south for the cheaper gas.
 
Paid $2.35 for regular here at the Jersey shore yesterday. I'm almost to the point where I'm ready to just throw in $10 worth or so because the price drop per gallon from last fill up to yesterday was close to 15 cents! We'll get back to that $1.29 low I hit on the last dip.

So the off-brands are likely a few cents cheaper for regular.
 
One station was advertising diesel at the same price at regular while another one a few blocks away was $2.69.
 
The salesperson at the Toyota dealer mentioned this morning that getting a Prius right now, optioned like you want it, would be relatively easy (but watch out if the gas prices pops for some reason).

Not intentionally for that purpse, but VA generally has lower prices than my native PA now. My personal recent low was $1.35 last December in Toms River, NJ -- near where you live.
 
Right now, the lowest I've seen is $2.27 at BP and one cent less at the aptly named "Lowest Price."

You're still a little cheaper than us but it's close.
 
My recent low was in that same time frame - $1.29. Would love to see that again.
 
How are your property taxes (well, at least the real estate property taxes) down there? I toy with cheaper areas. Usually that means North Carolina.

In the York area, I spotted $2.27 at Sam's club over the weekend. $2.29 seems to be the norm.

our lowest 87 no-lead price is currently $2.47/gal. We've been in that general ballpark for literally months upon months here in the high desert of southern Arizona.

Our real estate taxes are dirt cheap compared to New Jersey. My county of Albemarle charges 74.2 cents per $100 of assessed value annually. Each county or independent city sets its own rates. There are no separate school taxes or the like. Virginia, unlike PA or NJ, isn't divided up into tiny fiefdoms.
 
In normal times, assessed value is usually somewhat lower than market price.
 
Back to gas, it looks like $2.29 for RUG is the new norm around here, except for the two lower prices I cited in my previous post. According to Gas Buddy, NC always has higher prices than VA. However, SC seems to have bargain gas.

I topped off today at Costco and the price was $2.53. Last Thursday it was $2.47. Still the cheapest gas around here.
