Gas prices move below $2.50 Regular unleaded price has fallen over 18 percent since Labor Day record high, AAA reports. October 31, 2005: 7:06 AM EST
NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Regular unleaded gasoline prices fell nearly two cents Monday, dipping below the $2.50 mark, according to travel group AAA's daily survey.
The nationwide average price for regular unleaded fell to $2.492 a gallon from $2.509 Sunday, according to AAA. The price is down over 18 percent from the record high of $3.057 that it hit on Labor Day, following Hurricane Katrina.
Gasoline is down from $2.887 a month ago, but up from $2.031 a year ago, AAA says, a 23-percent year-over-year increase.

You can tell the pundits, elites and MSM jerks don't buy their own gasoline. They keep talking about rising prices. It's still high, but...
....it hit 1.99 in SW Missouri this morning.

We got up to 3.19 here, so a 1.20 drip is significant.

Our local Pilot truck stop usually is right at the bottom - it was at 2.32 this morning, down from 2.45 over the weekend. I have seen some gas prices posted at gasbuddy.com of 2.23 elsewhere in the Atlanta metro, but haven't seen 'em with my own eyes. The Pilot has come down so fast it will probably continue to fall. Even the local Texaco, which is usually high as a cat's back, has dropped into the 2.40s.

$2.69.
By the way, what would my fellow Freepers think about this: creating a website that tracks how much the oil companies make in profit. If Company A makes 10% and Company B makes 6%, we buy gas from B until A's prices come down to B's. Maybe there is a website like this already, but this is really the only way (besides not driving - not a choice) I can think of that we can exert some pinpointed influence over the industry.
