$3.489/gal at the local Cumby's, but that's gonna go up FAST.  Usually the price at work versus home is a good indication of where prices are headed--and prices at work are in the $3.559-3.599 range, unless you get the no-name stuff and then you might save a penny or two.

BJ's is about the cheapest I've seen at $3.469, but the lines are INSANE.

I ran up and back to Vt on a tank of $3.55 diesel from Northwood, when I went by on the way home it was $3.71!  And I wasn't there all that long.  I will have to see what it is today at Fliteline and Travel Port ( usually more expensive).

$3.49.9 in Columbia, MO today.

Slightly cheaper further north, but that won't last. Blew through two $20 bills in getting half a tank.  :bird:

It's been at $3.53 for a few days. However, I expect the Richmond fire to jack that up.

$3.41 - $3.59 for regular.  $3.61 - $3.75 Premium. $3.59 - $3.72 for Diesel .  Have never seen a price spread like that in town,  never. Avg about 15 cents a gal cheaper than 25 miles down the road.

I'd love to see $7 per gallon gas prices....

in early November for just a few days, a week tops.

If that doesn't put the proverbial nail in Barry's coffin, I'm not sure what else would.

You'll be close to getting your wish.  The refinery fire in CA, coupled with rising crude prices and fall shutdowns, meaning the average gas price will hit $4/gal by September (again.)

Couple that with over 8 percent unemployment and you can stick a fork in the Obamanation.

I would like to see it jump up to 5 or 6 bucks a gal from now to the convention so that more emphasis would be on drilling on federal land and waters.
