Gas prices going up again--imagine that.

[raccoon]

In upstate SC, they had dropped .10 or .15 recently. They've come back up again though.

2.65 at an Ingles station this morning. Last week it was 2.52.

5. ditto out here, and we can actually see some refineries!

Imagine that! I always wondered how come it gets cheaper after they ship it say to Ohio when it takes all that expensive gas to haul it.

2. but..but..but..the master terrorist is dead!

I mean, the media keeps telling us that oil and gas prices are going down, right?!?

Seriously, gas prices should be going down somewhat as wholesale prices have gone down a bit (like 10-20 cents). So your gas station is just taking advantage of "summer driving season" to pad their profits some more...

3. Southeastern Ohio....still between $2.79 and $2.97

.......greedy bastards........

4. You're 20 cents cheaper than in Milwaukee--imagine that

and I have a sneaking suspicion that Milwaukee is lower than places in the west.

6. Oil prices dropped below $70 per barrel

following announcement of Zarqawi's death. But it sure hasn't shown up at the pump.

7. $2.75 - though one station is gouging at $2.99 and 6 others at $2.89

That'll change again soon, no doubt.

8. Up down up down up down up down . . .

But always up a little more and down a little less. It's called desensitization. That way when gas is 3.50 and then goes down to 3.29, people breathe a sigh of relief. Then up to 3.75 and down to 3.50 a few weeks later, and people feel a sigh of relief. And it goes on.

10. $2.89 is the going rate here.

Up from about $2.65 just last week.:mad:

[LostinVA]

11. $2.83 in Central VA, and hasn't gone done a cent in a month

Before that, it went from $2.87-$2.82.

WTF is this gouging and profiteering being allowed??? Why aren't people in the streets about it???

12. 3.00 dollars a gallon, here in MA
