Still a tad higher than other stations in the area, but it's still a 30 cent per gallon drop.Tommykeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751182125861177379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35315805.post-78072155607600658232008-09-19T14:19:00.000-04:002008-09-19T14:19:00.000-04:00That Exxon station will probably be prosecuted for...That Exxon station will probably be prosecuted for price gouging if anyone reported them. People like that make me sick.

I happened to be out paying our mortgage and the traffic was horrendous! Couldn't figure out why until we came upon a gas station that had lines of cars out in the roadway waiting to fill up at about 3.90 a gal.<BR/>It was crazy! Looked like it did way back when there was going to be a gas shortage. Weird sight. It never did go up that high.tina FCDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10037896362034609151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35315805.post-60072077115151487122008-09-15T22:40:00.000-04:002008-09-15T22:40:00.000-04:00Another strange thing I've never seen before.

At the BP station near my house, the mid-grade gasoline costs 2 cents more than the ultra gasoline.Tommykeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751182125861177379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35315805.post-91926134376340682832008-09-15T11:10:00.000-04:002008-09-15T11:10:00.000-04:00Yeah...I was riding along with my mother into anot...Yeah...I was riding along with my mother into another city for school this morning and it was $4.25 a gallon.

As recently as last year, most of the experts were saying there was no way a hybrid driver would save enough on gas to cover the price difference of the vehicle. I'm guessing that is no longer true.vjackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05868095335395368227noreply@blogger.com
