Those prices are unheard of in Florida, at least on the gulf coast Sarasota is higher than Tampa or further south, like Ft Myers. There are a lot of libtards in this area who believe in taxing and spending. Sad.

$4.59 for non-ethanol premium (93) at the local Valero.  Good thing I only need eight gallons.

We've been hovering right around $3.58 at the Sam's Club (Flying J) station in town for most of a month now.

CPF went down two cents to $3.50, a few hours after I had put 8-9 gallons into my RAV. :argh:

It's pretty much $3.25 a gallon around here, for the 90% gasoline, 10% ethanol blend.

And $3.54 a gallon for the gasoline I buy, 100% pure gasoline.

It's after Labor Day.  Pretty soon, they'll switch over to the less-expensive winter blends... prices will probably drop somewhat.

About $3.39 at the neighborhood stations in Sarasota. Our taxes are high, even for Florida. We were in the Clearwater Fl area, north of here, a week ago and the gas was $3.08 a gallon and probably is lower now.

More than the winter blends being cheaper, I think these price decreases in the fall every 2 years has more to do with politics--Obama trying to bail out his stooges. His motto "Whatever it takes".

Down to $3.11 and probably still going down, all the while the local Libturds are trying to put through anti-fracking legislation in a county with nothing to frack.   :thatsright:

Gas has been on a slow roller coaster here. It had dropped slowly to $2.82, then jumped overnight to $3.19 last week. It's went down a few pennies to $3.09 as of yesterday.

2.80-ish around here.  I did notice Sam's was below 2.75, but I didn't see by how much.

I haven't seen anyone over 2.99 for a few days now, even the guys right off of the interstate.
