Woohoo! Down to $3.79!!!!! I'm so excited, I think I'll go get gas tomorrow. I still have half a tank, but just in case it spikes again, I think I will.

For those who currently own hybrids as well as those thinking about them:
Will Hybrid Batteries Last?

Nothing lasts forever, but hybrid batteries continue their charge.

The prices (of anything) in Nantucket are always going to be higher because of the carriage cost to the island. There is a limit to how many visitor cars are allowed on the island (only so many residential on the island as well). Most people take taxis anyway.

Anyway, today the lowest in the 3-town area I drive in is $4.28. I filled up. Thankfully, I don't drive a lot, so a tank can last me a week or two depending on my schedule. My husband, however, has to fill up at least twice a week.

Seriously, gas is cheaper in Hawaii than it is in Seattle? UGH.

It's $4.39 at the cheapest station by me. $4.99 for diesel or biodiesel.

Peppy, that only lasted about 12 or so hours, I think.

One of the major stations here (it has multiple daily dedicated deliveries) just in the past few days started a two tier pricing system. One price for cash, another for credit cards.
Cheapest station nearest to me is now $4.33

$4.29 for super unleaded 3 days ago, and I am almost on empty again. Prices are better in Texas, but this is starting to affect my plans for any long car trips.

we held steady at $3.98/$3.99 since memorial day weekend... even with oil prices going down we remained the same... but we've finally hit $4.00/gal for regular.

I filled up today again and it was down to $4.19. But I was near empty and so had what might be a personal record fillup cost of $96.75.
