Totally OT: Gas prices

<< < (3/7) > >>

David:
Well, the price seems to change daily I swear.    This past Saturday it was $2.95 for the lowest 87 octane,  Valero brand gasoline.   

What really baked my beans is that a gallon of Hood 2% Milk is now $4.49 !  :o

Makes the price of gas seem reasonable!   LOL

Was it really under a dollar in 1999? I have a hard time remembering those days...

When I was in college, I could fill my car for $5 and believe me, I had a BOAT (it was my grandmother's old car).
Of course, I went to college in a prior century  ;)

Yep, $0.75 per gallon.  It was on one of our road trip.  The cheapest we have seen was in NC at that time.  But I only came to US in 1997, and only started to care for gasoline price in 1998. :)

For 87 octane it's an average of $3.02 here in San Diego some stations still as low as $2.89 per gallon with some as high as $3.20.   I'm still getting mine for $2.89 per gallon a t Costco.. but who know how much longer that will be.  Forecasters are saying the lowest price will be $3.15 by the Memorial Day weekend.

I swear Newfoundland has the highest gas prices. Just under $6/gallon here. Crazy huh? Makes me glad I don't have a car. But I often pay for gas for friends.  :-\

I saw on the evening  news that gas is 35 cents a gallon in Iran and 12 cents a gallon in Venezuela. Just an FYI.
