Re: Oil spikes on M East events-How are gas prices in your area?
Haven't been out today yet, but it was still at 3.17 yesterday. That is the lowest I have seen in my area.

Wow, those gas stations really took the "would you like a car wash today?" questions to a whole new extreme!
Cheapest station here is $3.19 now, $3.29 at most locations.

Re: Oil spikes on M East events-How are gas prices in your area?
Folks,it looks like gas prices will keep climbing as today the oil market closed around $102 a barrel.

Oil prices settled at a 2 1/2 year high above $102 a barrel after an airstrike near Libya's oil infrastructure kept the market braced for a prolonged disruption from the OPEC nation.

Fresh airstrikes hit Brega, about 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) from a Libyan oil terminal, after Muammar Gaddafi launched a land and air offensive to retake territory in Libya's east.

Re: Oil spikes on M East events-How are gas prices in your area?
The station by me is now $3.59 in PA this AM, yesterday it was $3.45. In NJ yesterday morning I got gas it was $3.15, the guy told me I was lucky, he was about to change it to $3.19, drove by there this AM and its now $3.25!!!
There is a family owned grocery store by me, Hennings, they have gas rewards hooked up to your grocery card. I had thought you needed a credit card hooked up to it and didn't use it until last month when I found out you didn't need a credit card! It allows 20 gallons at the discounted price but you have to pay for the entire 20 gallons at the one shot and what you don't use you get your change back so I tried it last month, I got gas at $1.40/gal! I was happy yet I was po'ed because the month before I could have gotten one tank of gas at 0.40/gal!!!! Needless to say I am racking up what I can so I can get one cheap tank of gas this month!

Another casualtie of the spike of Oil are the majority of the Airlines in the U.S (Except the low fare airlines) that for the 6th time this year have increased the fares.

$3.39 across the board here in Garland/Mesquite in eastern DFW now. (actually as of last night) One station is hanging on for dear life at $3.37. There are no "cheap" gas stations anymore.
