$2.56 today coming to work.  Too bad the tanks are full (of more expensive gas)!

What are you seeing in your world?

There was a time when having American oil production up at record levels would have been considered good news.  We certainly live in a different world now.

If one believes that global warming is costly, what one wants is really, really cheap to produce fossil fuels, together with a carbon tax to make it really, really expensive to consume! Then quantity used goes down, emissions go down, and the revenue to promote one's favorite projects -- anything from other tax reduction to subsidizing higher ed -- goes up.

This is the cheapest way of combating the consequences of global warming, on account the easiest substitution possibilities get made use of first.

$2.99 in my usual gas station, and just above $3 in the other ones. I think I saw the below-$3 rate about a week ago, so am glad that the prices are holding steady. I haven't needed to fill up yet, so I'm not sure if the posted rates are the same as the ones charged by the gas station.

$2.99 at Costco and Sam's Club. $3.19 and up at the others in town

Safe and smooth travels for those heading out for Christmas and New Year! It's been a busy travel day on Baltimore/DC area roads and at the big 3 airports today.

Have been quarantined at home with COVID so not ventured out lately.  However, I did get out today and saw that prices were up $.20 or so since I was sidelined! Prices close to home are now $2.74 or so.
What prices are you seeing?   With the big storms hitting everywhere do you think prices will rise or fall (as who can go anywhere?)

$2.39-$2.59.   I paid $2.09 today where the four stations are in a continual gas war. Could have gone for $1.79 at one but would have been in line forever.

Driving in today I saw a jump to $2.99!

What is it in your neighborhood?  Has it jumped or fallen lately?

Almost $2.80 for the lowest grade today.  That's very steep for around here.  Glad I have a vehicle that only 6-7 gallons at each fueling.

$3.45 at Costco and Sam's Club. $3.49 and up at other stations around town. Glad I filled up at Costco last week!

WTOP Radio reports that gas prices are likely to be higher at the pumps with the spring season.

Filled up today!

Yesterday I went to work and one station was 3.09 and one a block away was 2.89.  I figured I would stop on the way home and fill up! 
Well, they must have felt the tremor in the force and by the time i made the return trip the price was up to 3.09 there too!

Today I could not put off getting gas, so I filled up.

I think the prices went up twice in the last week or 10 days--ended up paying $3.30/gallon. Aaargh! should have filled up last week.
