Gas Prices and Availability Thread

Given the gas price hikes and shortages, I thought it might be helpful to have a thread posted where people can provide information such as location, current price of gas, the percentage increase, and availability.

I had filled up yesterday and it was also uneventful.

Received a report from a friend this evening that south Birmingham gas stations were running out and they had to go to four places or so to find gas.

I did not see this myself. Earlier today the few stations I passed looked normal.

Location: Prescott Valley AZ

Price: Premium $3.22 per gallon at local Costco, gasoline is higher than other parts of AZ due to relatively remote location.

Availability: did not see anything unusual at the local stations.

Even tho I did not need to fill up, I am monitoring GasBuddy—they post recent current prices based on area. Very helpful!

about 3.07/gal at the Costco just north of SPokane wa....we filled up our gas cannisters, as we try to keep extra....we use the gas in the cans to fill up our vehicles. At the end of the month we can usually manage to get $1 off at the local Fred Meyer due to purchases made.

sister just drove up from Florida to NYS and found no problems...

West of Chattanooga. Small town and interstate exit. At about 3:30 pm went to the bank and gas was 2.74 and 2.87 with lines at the 3 gas stations nearest me 6 miles from interstate. Interstate exit gas 2.99 with lines. Signs on some pumps saying no gas. Half an hour later, the small town gas was $2.99 with regular and midgrade gone at all 3 stations.

And a guy trailered in an old rust bucket pick up truck. He filled his SUV and the rust bucket that looks like it hasn’t run in years. Storage.

Kennesaw in ATL metro area, gas was hard to find for a friend visiting from SC. It was over $3. Two of nine stations had run out of gas.

I would like to point out โ€œrussiaโ€ didnโ€™t do this during the Trump years. I donโ€™t think gas was this high in GA during the prime of his term.
