Re: What are you paying for gas? - 02/26/11 02:46 AM

It was $3.09 two days ago and it is $3.33 today at the same place.. Fortunately the Kroger Grocery Store gas station has a 10 cents a gallon and up to 50 cents a gallon off for food purchased at their store.. I got 40 cents a gallon off of the $3.09 price when I filled up this week..

$3.14/gallon at Costco on the 23rd up from $2.96 the month before and $2.80 in December.

Glad to be getting 49 miles per gallon with these prices.

Our prices actually WENT DOWN from the beginning of this week till today. Our regular is $3.34 and Super is $3.64. People must have been complaining to the State Commission on the high price gauging.

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 03/16/11 01:48 AM

The southwest and some of the south side of Indy tend to have the bargain prices for gas, probably because that is where Paul lives . . . I was in Indy today for work, and prices tended to be in the 3.55 range, which is what they are here. For whatever reason, Saturday we bought gas at Sam's Club on the north side of Indy for 3.38 when the going price was 3.65. How could Sam's sell it for 27 cents a gallon less than everyone else? Maybe they are just not as greedy . . . At this moment, prices for Speedway in Indy range from 3.31 to 3.63 (and the hi price is at a south side station - go figure). Guess all this just supports my contention that they are a bunch of greedy bas*****.
Posted By: Bob M

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 03/16/11 12:20 PM

It's definitely a greed thing. There is no shortage of gas, but the oil companies are charging us more because they have a perception that oil will cost more in the future. They bought the current oil for short money and want to charge us as if they paid a high price. The motoring public gets taken while they make large profits.

$3.329 in Parker CO on Saturday for 85 octane. For those that are not familiar, CO sells 3 octanes and they are lower than back east; 85 is considered our regular, 87 is midgrade and then 91 is "high test".

Just returned from the Cape last night. 87 is back up to $3.46 again. How do you go from $3.46 to $3.40 to $3.43, then back to $3.46 in three days?

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 03/30/11 11:00 AM

Leveled off again at $3.46 for 87. In the past they would jump 10 cents between octane levels. Now 89 is 12 cents more than 87. 93 is 12 cents more than 89. I think oil companies have psychologists on staff who know how to maximize volume and profit by messing with peoples minds.

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 04/04/11 01:18 AM

In our area the Speedway stations (owned by Marathon) seem to be the driving force - when they change, everyone else follows suit. Very unusual for them to do a major increase on Sunday, but the greedy bastards went from 3.64 or so up to 3.85 today. Kroger and Sams usually don't follow until the end of the day, so was able to get topped off at the "lower" price. Can't figure any reason other than exceptional greed for the bump. Interestingly, in Indy their prices are anywhere from 3.55 to 3.85 - no logic.

They have jacked the price about 20 cents a week for the past 3-4 weeks, and aren't taking it down much at all.

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 04/12/11 12:08 PM

The fleecing of the public by Big Oil with the assistance of politicians. The Congress and the Senate should pass a bill stating if and when gas reaches $4 per gallon, the government will seize control and turn all profits over to registered vehicle owners. All vehicle owners will receive monthly reimbursements determined by the amount of gas/fuel they use.

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 04/27/11 05:14 AM

Naw, Max, they're just being the greedy bastards we all know they are. Price is the same here. When they made the jump yesterday, some stations jumped almost 25 cents. Some moron from the attorney generals office was interviewed on the tube and when asked if they were going to look into the jump as price gouging essentially said "no, we expected the price adjustment since they had been selling at a loss". He had such a smug grin on his face I tried to look and see if the oil companies had their hand up his backside controlling what he said . . .

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 04/27/11 12:27 PM

Something has to give sooner or later. I don't want to sound like a broken record but this is price gouging. There is no shortage. This is nothing but greed by Big Oil and speculators. The speculators are going to ruin the American Economy again while they line their pockets with record profits. Something has to be done by the government. If they don't do anything, then we need new Senators and Reps who will get the job done.

Exxon earned net income of 10.65 Billion

Royal Dutch Shell " 8.78 B.

Greedy bastards bumped it another 20 cents yesterday, so we are now at 4.39 or thereabouts. Hope the oil companies and distributors are able to pay their bills. Given the obscene profits that they are reaping I could almost support nationalization, even knowing what a fantastic job the idiots in DC would do running them . . .

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 05/04/11 12:21 PM

Hovering around the $4 mark in my area. Many big oil brands are above four bucks for 87. Mid grade and premium grade are showing wider margins. They use to be about 10 cents in between grades. Now it's more like 15-20 cents between grades. Bye, bye economic growth! The small businesses will suffer with less traffic.

I paid 3.75 cash for gas today - and when I drove by the same gas station earlier today it was 3.79 so it actually went down 4 cents.

Saw an article in todays newspaper saying that projections are for gas to go DOWN 50 cents by the end of June.

A couple of stations went from $3.98 to $3.93 in my area. I guess it's not so much the nickel savings per gallon but rather the fact that gas actually went down a wee bit.

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 05/10/11 10:50 PM

Go figure! I lucked out when I purchased 87 octane at $3.85 this morning instead of the $3.93 is was yesterday at the same station. I just drove by a few minutes ago, and after the price had dropped 8 cents for this morning it went up 4 cents this afternoon. I can't figure these gas stations out.

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 05/11/11 05:34 AM

I cant figure out why it is taking so long to drop the price. It has been almost a week now that the price of oil is under $100 a barrel. The price sure goes up when they increase the price per barrel. There has been no change of price here in Delaware. It is still around $3.95.9.

Re: What are you paying for gas? - 05/11/11 06:20 AM

I think it's the 'inventory rule'.

When the prices go up, they raise 'em at the pump and all the fuel in the underground tanks get valued higher.

But when they lower prices, they have to sell all the 'more expensive' gas in the tanks at the higher price before they can lower the pump prices.

A local rock station had a radio remote with a local gas station/convenience store yesterday for their 4 year Memorial weekend anniversary celebration!

All gas prices for 3 hours-$3.50 gallon!! Cars were lined up for the 3 hours! Extreme long lines! We waited in line for 15 minutes to fill up! Returned to the $3.99 after the special!

Last year the price of a gallon of gas was $1.99 during the anniversary special! That price now seems cheap!!

Do you remember what price you paid for a gallon of gas when you started to drive??

First fill-up in my 1971 Mustang: .48 a gallon!!

I have to strongly agree with you, Dave. Why should Big Oil just randomly screw the motoring public and business people because they think there's going to be further unrest in the middle east or a storm in the Gulf, or elsewhere. The gas we're pumping now is from the past drilling and has nothing to do with what is going to happen in the future. Big Oil is not operating at a loss, but rather they're recording record profits at our expense and loss.

I've now got 28,500 miles on the car purchased in April 2010. My last vehicle, a 1991 Volvo got 18 MPG, I figure my savings was just under 1,000 gallons with the Prius. At today's gas prices, that's about $3,200 in savings.
