1. Oil is up to about $74 a barrel so the price of gasoline will go up.

8. Thats down from around $86 a few weeks back
The traders have figured out that the IMF imposed austerity in Europe will mean less consumer spending and its scaring them to death.

2. Gas prices aren't coming down in Alaska.
We've been paying $3.37 a gallon here in Anchorage for weeks now as we watch the prices fall everywhere else. There's something pretty bizarre going on up here when we have the oil and two refineries right here in the state.

3. Dropped in Colorado as well... also in Tennessee
I live in Co and work in Tn I have seen the prices drop in both places. About 20 cents in the last few weeks. Shocking considering that I can't remember a Memorial day weekend when gas wasn't going up...

5. Prices dropped in Texas too.
I wondered about the price dropping at this holiday. I have never seen anything like it before.
