Down a couple cents to $3.72 today.

The gas stations are the busiest I've seen in a few years. Almost impossible to drive up to an open pump. Pick a line to wait in and hope the driver doesn't go in to buy lotto tickets. :mad:

$ 3.81 today at Sams. +.57 for premium.

I got a great deal on gasoline at a reservation station in a fairly desserted area of Riverside County, CA on Firday. #5.499/gal. I was so happy.

$2.99 next week?

$3.59 today for reg here.

Bob Kontak 08-05-2022 06:20 AM

$3.37

Sooner or later 08-05-2022 06:37 AM

$3.19 -down the street. Was $3.35 on the 30th

Maybe the illusive $2.99?

$3.99 in the metro area of MN this morning.

Chevron regular 3.45 in central Mississippi. Same station, premium is 4.75. :mad:

stevej37 08-07-2022 04:41 AM

^^^
$1.30 diff between the two??
Our diff is always 60 cents.

I'm just now back from getting gas...$3.56 for reg.

Dan J 08-07-2022 07:29 AM

Why buy premium? Any car I own with knock sensors is getting a steady diet of regular
I've been doing this for years with no issues
The other day I was next to a woman filling her Toyota SUV with premium I told her she was wasting $20 she said it ran better:rolleyes: Ok sure

stevej37 08-07-2022 07:32 AM

^^^
Both of my Hondas have bright yellow stickers inside the fuel door. 'Unleaded Premium Only'

That's plenty of reason for me.

A guy is filling a beautiful MB with regular at the same Speedway I have been quoting prices from. I ask does that take regular? He says no but his friend owns a Mercedes dealership and he said you don't need to use premium.

Said he had been doing it for years.

$3.29

^^^ But how can a guy who paid prob 70K or more for his car skimp a few cents on the fuel? :confused:

I don't know.

I gotta think some performance is left on the table even though the car will run.

VINMAN 08-08-2022 09:57 AM

Up 4 cents here this morning...

Sams today had regular for $3.51 and 93 for $4.09.

^^^ Looking at Gas Buddy...I see a bunch of OK stations under $3.
Which you will be tomorrow, I guess.
