I'm stunned that there is gas for $1.98. I'll be more stunned if there prices continue to go down.

$1.91 at the little station around the corner from my house.

The prices here have fallen at least 2 cents a day for the past 2 weeks. One day alone it dropped ten cents. Last weekend, when the prices were $2.11 but had been steadily falling, I bet my husband that it would fall below $2 eventually. He did not think so. By Monday I had won that bet!

Fun times.

$1.90 just South of Knoxville on Sunday.

The guy at the pump next to me took a picture of the sign with the price on it.

Yeah, it's all fun and games with the low gas prices, the problem is, they are low because of the global fears of a world wide recession - BOO!!!

Hopefully, we'll all have jobs to pay the low price.

Oh well! Enjoy it while it lasts!

So here I go complaining again....but seriously:

Texas average gas price: $2.003
National average gas price: $2.178

El Paso average gas price: $2.366. Seriously? .36 cents higher than the Texas average? Why?

The reason it is so high. Because apparently when the rest of the country had high gas prices, El Paso's gas was relatively cheap. Sorry, that makes no sense.

Consider it a small price to pay for living in "paradise".

it's $1.79 here as well

but if you get your gas at kroger ( like i do) and use your kroger plus card, you save .03 if you haven't spent $100 in groceries yet and you save .10 if you have spent $100. and if you have a Kroger 1-2-3 Mastercard you save .15

so i filled up today for $1.64 .... AAHHH I WAS SO EXCITED!!!!! lol

For the first time in a LONG time, gas in Jacksonville dropped below $2.00. I almost crashed the car.

I paid $2.39 this morning. But I've still seen it as high as $2.65 by my house. I doubt NY will ever see gas under the $2.00 mark again!
