While on my way home tonight I noticed that gasoline had dropped to $1.95 /gal I haven't saw fuel under 2 bucks in a long while!
Was $1.89 here last Friday afternoon...then they jumped it up to $1.99 before everybody got off work...dirty rats. Of course that was better than normal, it usually jumps up $0.30-.40 at a time
2.09 here today. Good and bad. People are traveling and buying gas guzzlers as fast as detroit can make them. Main product stream for us is coil to supply stamping plants. The dies a designed for specific properties and the manufacturers won't jump to Chicom steel because it destroys dies. They want all the steel we can make. Across the road their product stream is pipe. Gas and oil is down, commie steel is hammering what's left, they are hurting.
Well, here goes. I guess I'm blessed where I live. They finally loosened the purse strings just a little and dropped down to $2.40 a gallon. Last week, I had a person tell me that just over a one hour ride away, the price was $2.00....last week.
Cheapest here $2.23 Shell station Best price in a long time ! Gonna fill up my jugs Price may start up with recent events
Hey Dave... our gas is about that too here in Maine. I thought the market would tank yesterday and it went up a couple hunderd points. Don't know if those guys who yap about all that financial stuff know what they're yappin about but, most seem to think the market has girded it's loins for stuff like terrorism. We'll see.
SisIL said the stations in town were $2.099 yesterday...today, I filled up @1.999. I should go fill the gas jug too. Don't need any for the saw.
Lot of different taxes, tax by state map link at bottom PA the highest @ 73.7¢ total/gallon , not sure what all the hidden fees are, not sure it even right. Fed 18.4¢ on gasoline (24.4¢ 0n diesel) Each state is different + there are other hidden fees, (not called taxes) you can see if you compare the 2 charts. Example : Alaska has 8¢ + 18.4¢ = 24.4¢ = but total taxes & fees are 30.65¢ /gallon Good info here; Total fees & taxes States map: Gasoline Tax
