What are they in your area?
If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Yay! We're now around $2.20 at regular stations and I've seen as low as $2.13 at Arco.
In related news, traffic is up due to less people taking public transportation now that they can afford their own.

Ooo! I have $1.67!
Am I the lowest?! Or do you Ohioans have that beat?

$1.71 is about the norm in this area, give or take 5 cents.
I can't imagine paying the California/Chicago/New York prices though!

I filled up last night for the first time since September 28th (I don't drive often while at school). I checked my gas book, and the price of gas I paid on 9/28 was 3.49 Last night, it was 1.89, at the same station. I further checked my gas book, and it's been four years since I've filled up for that little. A full tank for less than 30 bucks--that hasn't happened in a while either.
Yep, that made me rather glad.

I saw $1.57 last night...
Wonder if it'll spike up for Thanksgiving, though...

I hope it goes even lower, but I doubt it will.

I live in a big metropolitan area, so prices have been pretty darn high. But my dad told me he found a gas station selling gas for like $1.75 a gallon! Is that ah-mazing or WHAT?!?!

Top, we've just been owned..
I am going to be in your area for Thanksgiving, Top, so I'm sure we'll get to steal some of your ultra-cheap gas.

I saw $1.52 in Indy the other day!
In my part of California, a lot of the stations are selling $1.99 gas. But if you look hard enough in the same city, you can find it at $1.77!
