Replying to: armadilloal (Jul 08, 2008 10:04 am) I seem to remember gas in Rockford somewhat inexpensive, but then I lived in Chicago at the time. (My sister used to live right outside of Rockford and I have family in SoBo) |

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Jul 08, 2008 1:05 pm) Could very well be different jurisdictions with different tax rates. I used to live in Cook County but very close to Du Page County where taxes were about 2% different. I used to cross the county line all the time to get gas at 5 cents or more less. Now I think gas is like 20 cents or more more expensive in cook county than many of the surrounding counties simply because of the tax rates.

Replying to: greanpea68 (Jul 08, 2008 10:02 am) I said that long ago and was chastized for it.  Are car sales increasing? Is the economy picking back UP?

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Jul 08, 2008 1:05 pm) The only problem is that the prices go up in my metro area when I get closer to the ghettos. Wonder why??? |

Replying to: snakeweasel (Jul 08, 2008 2:03 pm) I think that's it rather than "zone pricing" by the big oil companies. I used to live in Stamford, CT. It had REALLY expensive gas. Next town over is Greenwich, CT. It's A LOT more affluent than Stamford yet had cheaper gas.
