Gas Prices

Tue Jun 01, 2004 5:27 pm

Juuuuuust for my amusement and expression of frustration, what are your local gas prices (for regular octane, or whatever's lowest) currently? They're sky high pretty much everywhere.

It's 99.9¢/L here for self, and a blank (actually 103.9¢/L) for full. The signs can't fit anymore than that, because they've only got space for three numbers. Maybe that's kind of a good thing...

It's 99.5c a litre for petrol here. I remember a few years ago when it was 60c/L - and when my dad started driving, it was 4c/L. Talk about inflation :roll:

In philadelphia it was up to $2.09 and higher just for regular, here in jersey, its bit cheaper, $1.97...not much cheaper. It's funny though, Philadelhpia has a giant gas refinary right at the beginning of the city and we pay less for gas...ah well, there loss.

Oh boy, I'm going to be very confused with everyone using litres. Why can't Americans just use the friggin metric system?! Well, I know why...we're just stupid and lazy. The gas prices down the road are like $1.85 per gallon (at least the last time I checked). In the city they're usually $1.90-something. I haven't seen it sell for $2 anywhere for regular, though.

We have nothing to complain about though. The high gas prices might actually encourage us to be smart and use economical cars. haha No. I don't expect that to happen anytime soon. It's really pathetic.

I don't quite remember. Maybe $2.20 or $2.30 per gallon for unleaded in the Seattle area. I don't remember what it is in New York at all.

For our area, prices seem to have gone up recently. Now, it's about $1.97 or so a gallon.

Don't know why we should be complaining though. I heard it's about three bucks in the Southwest area.

Its $1 AU for a litre, so around 70c a litre US :)

It was $1.93 for a while, but I don't usually pay much attention to the price, especially since the station I go to had to take down their big sign that listed the prices so some construction could be done. I know the premium has been over $2.00 here for a while.

Same here... but I could've sworn I've seen gas for just a bit lower.

*sigh* My wee little civic took $18 dollars to fill up yesterday and I was none too happy about it. Gas is $2.01/gal here. :?

Ugh, I don't get away from the house much because I watch the girls all day, but my husband and I went out to buy a new bookcase last weekend and I couldn't believe the gas prices! The cheapest was around $2.15. That's utterly ridiculous. I can remember when it was under $1 a couple years ago and I asked my husband if there was anyway we could buy a lot of it and store it somewhere. ;) lol
