Author Topic: Gas Prices in your area Mike Williams Master Film Handler Posts: 255 From: Knoxville, TN Registered: Feb 2002 posted 08-29-2003 06:31 AM                     Gas is getting extremely expensive! Yesterday, I paid $1.60 a gallon for the cheap stuff. I know in other parts of the country it is much worse. Has anybody seen it cheaper than this?  |  IP: Logged Jeff Stricker Master Film Handler Posts: 481 From: Calumet, Mi USA Registered: Nov 1999 posted 08-29-2003 06:58 AM                     It's $1.69 in central Indiana today, down from $1.76 last weekend. You can buy a gallon of milk for the same price.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 08-29-2003 09:15 AM                        Fuel is costing an "arm and a leg": http://www.edge-inc.net/humor/index.cfm/page/one/id/1040/t/Image.htm http://www.hypercenter.com/jokes/gas/gas01.shtml http://cagle.slate.msn.com/news/HighGasPrices2003/main.asp  |  IP: Logged Scott Jentsch Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1061 From: New Berlin, WI, USA Registered: Apr 2003 posted 08-29-2003 09:57 AM                        I paid $1.85 for regular unleaded here in the Milwaukee, WI area two days ago. I think it might be up to $1.89 now.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-29-2003 12:34 PM                        Ours was $1.64 last week; $1.76 this week.  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

Posts: 3836 From: Albuquerque, NM Registered: Feb 2000 posted 08-29-2003 12:43 PM                        Chevron premium is $2.119 in my part of town, higher along the freeways and where ever tourists be.  |  IP: Logged Ron Lacheur Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 650 From: British Columbia, Canada Registered: Feb 2002 posted 08-29-2003 02:14 PM                     Up here, 91 cents a litre.  |  IP: Logged Peter Kerchinsky Master Film Handler Posts: 326 From: Seattle, WA, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 08-29-2003 02:35 PM                     Here in the Seattle area the "lowest" I've seen is $1.86 at Arco and up to $2.03 at most others. Stations near the freeway are about $1.99 to $2.10! Has anyone out there heard a reasonable explaination for the recent hikes, or do we know already! Have a great and safe holiday weekend all.

Thats US$2.47/gal at todays exchange rate. I'm ashamed to admit I actually paid that much yesterday. $10 bought me one day's worth of gas. I want an electric car and I want it now!  |  IP: Logged Chris Markiewicz Expert Film Handler Posts: 209 From: Glenaviegh, County Tipperary, Ireland Registered: Aug 2002 posted 08-29-2003 03:17 PM                     $2.33 for regular here in Kamuela. I understand it's pushing $2.40 on Maui.  |  IP: Logged German Marin Expert Film Handler Posts: 227 From: Verbania (VB), Italy Registered: Jul 2001 posted 08-29-2003 03:21 PM                     Nobody will believe this. In Venezuela: $1 = Bs.1598 1 liter of gasoline 91 oct: Bs.70 = $0.04 1 gallon = 3.78541 ltr 1 gallon = $0.16 1 liter of "green" gasoline 95 oct: Bs.97 = $0.06 1 gallon = $0.23 The people say the Gas is too expensive... I think it's a waste of money.  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

Ayakawa Film God Posts: 2738 From: Waipahu, Hawaii, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 08-29-2003 05:53 PM                        Although I started a thread on this topic a few months ago that received over fifty hits, I am very glad another one has taken it's place for discussion. My regular station now charges $2.24.9 for the premium grade I prefer to use for my car but I have found others that charge about 6 cents cheaper for the same Union 76 gas I buy. I now shop around for the best prices. There were times when most of my commuting could be done by taking the bus and a full tank of gas costing about $27.00 would last almost two weeks. With the bus strike now in Honolulu and the entire island of Oahu here in Hawaii, a tank would only last about five days. -Claude  |  IP: Logged
