Gas Prices Fall Below $2.50 (How Much are You Paying?)

At last!! This War for Oil thing is paying off.

Oh, wait, that's not what this article is about.

Never mind.

Wow! Lowest I've seen is $2.29 in Western PA. Maybe someone is lower, but that's the lowest I've seen.

Still too high, I think.

We saw 2.16 last weekend here in NE OH, down from the post-Katrina high of 3.45 (which only lasted a couple days).

$2.19 for reg., $2.39 for premium, here in State College, PA.

[joesbucks]

$2.12 with my Kroger card. Lowest non-incentive card price in the area was $2.17 in greater Columbus.

Your $1.90 wins...so far. Would not have expected that price up east. $1.96 here in the Ozarks, at a couple places.

2.22 here, but why is diesal still at 3.20+?? ____ I was wondering the same thing...1.20 higher here, too. I'm sure some smart Freepers can tell us why.

Home heating oil season. Also gas has seen a drop in demand. Article was posted on FR about it. Diesel and related products are not seeing these same drop's in demand issues.

I don't know! I last drove my car on October 13.

Am I missing anything?

I filled up my tank yesterday in Cleveland with my Giant Eagle advantage card for $1.39 gal. Regular price $2.19 with an 80 cent per gallon discount that we earned at the Giant Eagle GetGo station.

As of today $2.19 was lowest I've seen.. but its still dropping about a nickle to a dime every few days.

[Seamoth]

That must be it... I thought that gas prices were consistently kept at only about 20% or so above (today's) raw oil prices. Shows how much I know :-)

[HamiltonJay]

Home Heating Oil is just DIESEL FUEL with a red tint die added... so, its coming into peak season

[mysterio]

$2.38 in central Indiana.

Good for you!

Eating tofu now too?

Another idea would be a website that tracks gas prices across the country. Then travelers could plan their routes to get the lowest prices on the road. It would create more competition between states to keep gas prices down.

$2.73⁹. Yesterday. Cheapest I could find.

Thanks!! I am on vacation on the Gulf andf head back to Colorado in November. My route is flexible, so this could help.
