I passed a $2.85 this morning in Delaware. Almost got into an accident when I saw it that cheap.
Curious to see what's happening around the country. I know we can't stay this low this long but for now it's nice.

(14,881 posts)Russia combined with worldwide drop in demand.
Lack of demand is due to recession/deflation brewing in Europe and slowdown in China as well. We may be headed toward a triple-dip recession here.
So price will stay low as long as possible to continue punishing Russia, but they won't let it drop below $80/barrel or so or it will start seriously crimping US fracking, which would shut down completely somewhere between $70 and $76/barrel.
