How much are you {gulp} paying for gas?

Moms View Message Board: General Discussion: Archive May 2004: How much are you {gulp} paying for gas?
By Ginny~moderator on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 01:49 pm:

I paid $2.049 today. When I got home two of my sons and a friend compared, and the best any of us have seen in the past week is $2.019. I've seen as high as $2.199 and $2.239 (this is all for "regular").

By Debbie on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 01:52 pm:

I paid $1.99 two days ago for regular. I was in California last weekend and it was $2.40 for regular. I was very happy I was just visiting!!

By Ladypeacek on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 02:03 pm:

Well here on base its about 2.50 but off base it is almost 5 bucks a gallon right now with the exchange rate!! To fill up our wagoneer off base it would be almost 100 bucks!

By Marcia on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 02:03 pm:

We're paying about .92/litre, which is close to a quart. It can go up and down by .10 within minutes. It's insane!

By Melanie on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 02:05 pm:

Last time I checked it was $2.39. I filled up at Costco the other day for just $2.29.

By Carolk on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 02:09 pm:

$1.94 In St. Louis a couple days ago. I stopped filling at $15.00 and it only filled my tank halfway. I would hate to have a minivan or any big car like that. A friend was filling her minivan and decided to stop at $36.00 and I think she only made it to 3/4 of a tank. It's ridiculous. I haven't noticed what it is today.

By Jackie on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 02:17 pm:

Here in Va Beach, it ranges from $1.95-$1.97

By Kay on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 02:31 pm:

I'm in Texas, and I paid $1.89 a few days ago.

By Karen~moderator on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 03:27 pm:

$1.849 at Sam's Club yesterday in Louisiana......

By Pamt on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 03:46 pm:

It's been fluctuating from the high $1.80s to the mid-$1.90s in Baton Rouge (home of Exxon-Mobil and lots of offshore drilling :()

By Amecmom on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 03:49 pm:

$2.49 for Premium and I have and Audi which must have premium ...

2.04 for regular gas here in south Florida

By Tink on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 04:01 pm:

$2.37/gal. here but I think California is the highest because of our clean air restrictions.

By Emily7 on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 04:37 pm:

We are paying 1.77 for reg unleaded & 1.97 for super unleaded in Wyoming.

By Amy~moderator on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 04:54 pm:

$1.99 on base in Louisiana. It's disgusting :(

By Amecmom on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 05:00 pm:

Wow! I think I'd like to be anywhere but NY. It looks like we're paying the highest, from what I see posted here.

I live in Oklahoma and we are paying 1.92 at walmart. When we first moved here almost 6 years ago we were paying .88 I would love to go back to that time. It costs us over 50.00 to fill hubbys truck. which we haven't did that in awhile

By Cybermommyx4 on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 05:43 pm:

$2.059 in northern NH.....grrrr.....my dad heard that it could go over $3 by the end of July - anyone know if that's likely?

By Texannie on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 06:42 pm:

$1.89 in Houston.

By Palmbchprincess on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 06:46 pm:

We're paying $1.90 as of yesterday. I'm SOOOOOOOO grateful for Nate's Jetta... it's a diesel!It takes about $27 to fill my truck, and only $20 to fill his. Plus, his tank lasts us at least a week with both of us driving it. As far as $3/gal this summer, I don't doubt it!!

By Ginny~moderator on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 07:11 pm:

Don't know about $3 a gallon, but everything I hear on the radio says gas will be at least $2+ a gallon for a while. There are rumors - and they are only rumors - that the administration has made a deal with Saudi Arabia to have the price of gas go down several weeks before the November elections.

I do know the price of crude from OPEC is as high as it has been in at least 20 years, but according to my local newsradio station the OPEC ministers have agreed that at their next meeting, in a week or two, they will increase the amount of oil they ship - no comments about the price they will be charging.

P.S. I'm in Pennsylvania, just outside Philadelphia - the gas station with the lower price I found today is in Philadelphia. Next weekend we go to my son+dil's for a holiday get-together in NJ, where gas is always $.10 to $.20 lower, so whichever of us drives will fill up there.

By Boxzgrl on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 08:15 pm:

Gas here is 2.25 on base but about 2.30+ everywhere else. We went to Coronado Island today and it was 3.05!!!!!

By Mommmie on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 08:46 pm:

About $2.10 here in Texas. I'm glad I got rid of my Suburban a couple of years ago!

By Dawnk777 on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 08:56 pm:

Gas station near us has been at 2.05 for a long time. Didn't drive past it today, so I don't know if it has changed. At other locations in town, it was at 2.09.

By Mommyathome on Sunday, May 23, 2004 - 10:25 pm:

We paid $2.68 (yes, $2.68) a gallon in Baker California last Sunday. The cheapest gas we found after we got into SanDiego was $2.30-$2.40.

We were very happy to get back home yesterday and find that gas prices here are *only* $2.18. LOL

I can't believe how high the prices are.

By Feona on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 06:55 am:

2.45

Cheapest was 2.29.

By Kernkate on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 08:01 am:

Here in NE PA they are running around $1.99 for regular. But expected to go up again today:(

By Kaye on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 08:10 am:

Texannie no fair! My close gas station is 2.01, but we haven't seen it cheaper than 1.95 down here :( Oh I take that back, one day a station was selling for 1.56, there was a huge line!

By Texannie on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 08:20 am:

Well, this was last week..so maybe it's higher now! LOL

By Kittycat_26 on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 08:29 am:

We're at $1.99 on central PA/MD line. Unfortunately, most of us are at the mercy of gas. You gotta have it to get to work, grocery store, etc.

Grrrrrrrr!

By Mara on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 09:03 am:

$2.12 here in my part of Indiana.

By Jessicac1979 on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 09:08 am:

delaware about 1.99

By Laurazee on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 11:45 am:

Vancouver, BC was at 99.9¢ CAD / litre this weekend! That's 67.04¢ US / litre or about $2.53 US a gallon (I think). And that's just for regular.

Ugh!

By Janet on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 12:42 pm:

$2.07 in central Illinois. Isn't it funny how your perspective changes? I think $1.97 is such a good deal now!

By Momaroze on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 02:51 pm:

Same as Laura in Vancouver.
