Gas Price

Don't know the reason why...but really liking the gas prices lately. $2.05 last week and $2.07 this week for reg unleaded.

Noticed that diesel is $3.07

2.19 early this week. 2.09 today.

This Wed drove to Oil City, PA. 120 miles east of Akron, $2.89. Has to be some state taxes in that number.

A few weeks ago it went from 2.09 to 2.49 and has been going up and down since. Today, depending on which side of the river you are (different states) it's either 2.49 or 2.36.

2.09 at most places. 1.99 at a specific place with Speedpass.

The thing I've noticed around here, they are now charging extra for credit cards. In a lot of stations, a $0.20 difference! That is nearly 10%.

Kroger is a little more, but doesn't charge extra for credit cards. In the end, $0.15 cheaper.

I pay more for pure gasoline. No ethanol for my cars. I only like it in my beer.

I suggest you re-analyze your fuel-purchasing strategy.
I paid $3.05 for regular unleaded at ARCO this morning.
