Prices where I live have pretty much stayed at the $3.09/gallon ($.81/liter) mark for octane 86 at the local Fina and Mustang. There are some stations that have octane 86 for about ten cents cheaper, but they are few and far between and not worth the trip. The prices have been steady for the most part. There might be a week where gas goes up twenty cents per gallon, but the price usually goes back to its original amount after a random interval of time.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

2.59 per gallon of gas over here in Humble, Tx.
Has slowly been declining since the summer wehre it met 2.98+ at some points.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes up short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best, knows the triumph of high achievement; and at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid soulds who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Here in western BC it's 109.9 for a litre. Not too bad, and word has it that it's on it's way down

I was speaking idiomatically.

One liter of gas is 1.39€ here. Now I gonna double-convert this for you guys:

One gallon would be 6.6025 US$. Which is quite a lot I guess O_o

Gas in Germany really hasn't changed much in the past year, then. When I was there last summer, it was something like 1.35€. It's only around $2.79 now, which isn't too bad considering it was around $2.99 for months. It's pretty damn amazing, though, that I can remember seeing $1.20 down in Florida a few years ago.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, it hasn't changed much for quite a few months, but it's still freaking expensive. Good thing the greens are not part of the government anymore, with them the gas price would have risen to 2€ or some shit like that. The problem is that 80-85% of the German gas price are taxes, so the guys from the gas stations can't do much.

EDIT - Ugh, not sure how this double posting happened.

Anyway, for some new content, regular unleaded dropped a couple more cents to hit $2.31 on my way home from work. There might be some kind of mini-price war going on at that exit.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I think it was two years ago :O I'm pretty sure I was in college while it was still cheap, and I wasn't just starting when it started to spike. I distinctively remember reading a school newspaper when they were panicking abour $50/barrel during the hike in prices.

Also I remember an uber-huge gas thread (like this) around the initial peak.

It's around $0.30 per liter where I am right now. Yep, Saudi Arabia, cheap oil is excellent.

The price of gas is $2.68. But it's about $7 in Korea.

They just said today there are two states, Hawaii and California that are higher than us. Which is ironic because we have a large amount of oil on the eastern plains.

Nation-wide, gas dropped $.31 per gallon in the last 2 weeks, but here it only dropped $.10. They say it will go down more after Labor Day weekend has been put behind us, but uh... wasn't that last weekend? :doh:

It really felt good to be able to fill up my tank for roughly twenty dollars (at 2.46 per gallon.) After prices being so high, the lighter load on the wallet is certainly welcome (even if it may not last.)

At least we aren't headed toward oil at $100 per barrel by Thanksgiving like I was hearing just over a month ago.

The lowest I've seen around here lately is $2.51, which is pretty good conisidering where it was just a few weeks back.

Gas prices just dropped a bit where I live. They've gone from about 2.96 down to 2.70-75. Any little bit helps I guess.

get ready to be amazed
In my country, ecuador
we have regular 1.10 cts (which sux, i think that water works better in a car)
and Premiun for 1.60 cts(which still sux, but not like regular)
the thing is that my country produces petroil, and we have the most expensive(and by far) worse gas in south america.
When i travel to venezuela their gas cost like 10 cts premiun!!!!!
there are some issues with the production with the country, and the prices are paid in part by the country itself, but the gas its excellent!
