Memphis, Tn. Cosco 3.14
“Continue to fall”?
Our gas went up 30 cents a week ago, and is still climbing.
Most likely as I see it is the SHTF in Iran very shortly and gas going to $5+/gallon.
the highest i saw regular hit in naples was around $4.05/06.It has been going down daily at least for the last 3 weeks. we can only pray to see the “2’s” again by mid-june.
WHAT drop? Regular in SoCal is ~$4.45/gallon.
Paid $3.77/87 octane in MA this afternoon
Still high 3.90’s/low 4.’s in CT
Same for NY State
and just watch the leftist baffoons start assuming that Obumma will now win the election because gas is back to 3.00 a gallon. NOT !!!
$4.35 gallon here in Orange County, California
Gas here in western Washington is around $4.25. Gas has been going UP.
Is the “one” sneaking out releases from the US Petroleum Reserve in order to help with his re-election? The news has said nothing about it, but then they often over look such Rat “tricks.”
Someone forgot to tell the stations in California...!!
Nipped down to $3.999 and then $3.979 at my station here in Chicagoland. My opinion is that low demand is a big factor in this. In other words, as much as lower gas prices are good for you and me, they are a bad economic sign.
In the Catch22 world we live in, if it starts to look as though Romney might win the election we could see gas prices fall significantly on the expectation of traders that he will increase domestic oil availability thus lowering the price - which of course could help Obama do better in the election since he will still be in office and will undoubtedly take credit for any improvement in the situation.....
What weekly price drops?! Has not come down at all where I am at. Just paid $4.35 a gallon for mid grade. Regular is still at $4.25. Add 10 cents to those prices if you pay by credit card at the pump.
Kennewick, WA. Costco $ 4.02. 5/18/12
I wish they would fall, they have gone up 25 cents a gallon in the last 4 days here!
Now $4.28 for self serve regular!
The fact is speculation and banking is a large part of this. Market conditions have not caused prices to quadruple in a decade and prices at $3-$4 are simply unsustainable. I know this isn’t considered the “conservative” stance and the lack of domestic drilling has been a part of it, but not to this level. Commodities and related derivitives have been used to hedge against mortgages and debt.
Gas on the entire west coast is going up due to “refinery issues”. $4.20 for the cheap stuff in Western Washington.
No need for the Republicans to attack President Obama at all. Just replay all of the ridiculous promises he made during his first run for the presidency and then compare them to the present reality. Then when he starts whining that he couldn’t have forseen the economic crisis, time date stamp the promises he made after the crisis started. It would have been the perfect time to pare back his promises, but instead he steeped them up. Let his own words be his own worst enemy.
