Gas Prices Jumped $0.33 today....

[EightySix Four]

It's $2.73 at a local walmart, and 15 miles down the road it's $3.03, and another 10 and we're talking $3.10

Exxon's CEO wanted to buy a cruise liner. Also, election time is drawing near. That incumbent re-election money has to come from somewhere!

 

[pray4mojo]

I paid $3.32 the other day and I was so glad. The closest price was $3.51. Who knows what its at now.

 

[robphelan]

paid 2.64 @ costco yesterday

Because government released that oil and gas inventories are up as well as refining capacity! 🙂

(Yes, true).

Gas jumped $0.30 here also! 🙁

(Lexington, KY)

Even though inventories and output is up, worries remain.

US oil executive shot dead in Nigeria! :Q

Oil fell early on increased supplies.

that is so weird you said that... it actually went down in waterford/white lake/pontiac from earlier today.
i just paid 2.72

 

[MrDingleDangle]

i scared to go the pump anymore...last time i got it for 3.34 for the cheap stuff...in 2001 when i got my car, if i had to fill it up from the point when the light was on for a while it would cost me ~$21...2 days ago it cost me $41...booo

 

[drinkmorejava]

because they new you were getting it today and knew you'd pay for it

 

[JulesMaximus]

I'll check on my bike ride home and see what it's selling for around here. I remember seeing it around $3.50/gallon for regular unleaded a couple days ago.

 

[CalvinHobbes]

It's still $3.10 to $3.20 near me. We never fell below $3.00 like a lot of places did. It may just be the gas station owners getting in on the profits.

 

[xanis]

Why? Because they can, and there's nothing we can do about it. Gas is about $3.10 where I live, but I just cross the bridge in Washington's Crossing to New Jersey :evil: and its $2.92...

 

[BornStar]

In mid-MI it's at $2.96 up from $2.68 yesterday. Luckily I filled up yesterday. 🙂

 

[Blayze]

It actually went down 10 cents at one of the stations near my house. Currently $2.78 now.

 

[funboy6942]

I paid $2.60 a gallon at wally world. Go inside and get a gift card (or use the one you got for christmas) and put money to it. Then go to wally world pump and because you used the card will get an aditional .03 cents off per gallon 😀😀😀😀
All the other suckers paid $2.63 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[mayonnaise]

Because you touch yourself at night.

Right after 9/11 this Shell station across the street raised their price to $2. I can't remember what gas was at the time but it was in the low $1's if I remember correctly. The community got pissed at them for trying to price gouge us and they ended up closing that station within weeks. To this day I don't think there is a station there. It's just fenced off land.

Today, only 5 years later, I'd be thrilled to pay $2.

 

[PingSpike]

Because they can, and you'll buy it anyway.

 

[lrad50]

Cry about it, it's $3.40 here is San Diego.

 

[Eli]

Filled up for $2.89 thismorning.

Its because of the letter sent to Bush by the president of Iraq. Seriously. This letter sparked fears among analysts and investors that the US presence in the middle east will be far more protracted and may possibly include military action against Iran.

you mean the president of iran?

Yes.
