And I paid $3.80 on Monday.

Palm Beach County is still higher @ $3.75 today than what I paid in St Lucie County

Have been out of town since Monday, and on way home last night noticed fairly 'big' drops, 10 cents and more at some stations. I THINK I saw one @ $3.65 (cash.)

It's been dropping almost every day since Obama announced he was asking his people to look into the speculation.

On the other hand, I was po'd yesterday when I checked my grocery recpt. and saw that the 1+# package of grapes (2 handfuls) rang up at $6.48.

Not so much if you need to buy gas to get to work.

So I really don't think the comparison works.

4.45 point 9 to be exact, at the three closest stations to us. Overall, the prices here seem to be ranging from a low of 4.25 (west part of city) to 4.59 (north part of city).

Sigh, we always have the most expensive in nation (tie with California)

Which makes a tank about $2 cheaper - makes me wonder why the furor when it goes up by that much.

Worth looking into if you live near Von's stores.
