On the bright side, they busted those price gougers from last Friday, in our county (at the $7 and $6 a gallon on the way home from work). However, we are still paying $4.19 a gallon in our county. As if the Michigan economy isn't bad enough....

ETA: my math is the same as yours joja peach.

Alright folks, at least the price of gas is dropping! I bought gas for $3.19 last night. This morning, they are showing two gas stations on the news who have it for $2.97! Let's hope they don't shoot back up. Even better, let's hope they keep dropping!

Here the lowest is around 3.29. But it varies A LOT depending on the part of town and even the gas station company.

Dee I got gas at Speedway (my new favorite gas station, Fort and Sibley) for $3.09 last night! AND I paid with a credit card!

When they started this "you have to pay more if you pay with credit card" bullshit, I asked the fine folks at Speedway if they were going to do it and they said no they won't be. And the one I go to is always cheaper than anywhere else I see.

Prices finally went below $4.00 last week.

Got gas this morning from Costco at $3.54. I can't remember when it was last that I was able to buy gas for $3.54.

I drove past a station today that was 2.95!! That was just after I was feeling so smug for getting my gas for 3.15.

I never did pay 4.00, luckily.

Today I saw $2.99 cash. $3.09 credit. I wasn't sure we'd ever see 2.xx again, truthfully.

I don't think there's $2.xx has in Ga yet. Experts have been saying we won't see a significant price fall or gas supply increase until Nov. I said $3.69 at Quik Trip on Tuesday. It was down to $3.55 Thursday night. That's still down from $4.19 with super long lines less than a month ago.

I filled up yesterday and was happy to find a station with regular at $3.75. That's just sad.

I'm sad that we are between $3.29-3.49 but other places are below $3.

I miss the days when El Paso was such an economic blackhole that all the prices were soooooo low. Now we are just an economic blackhole with ridiculously high prices (for the area).

I saw gas for $2.89 but it was in another state. I'm back home with the $3.20's.
