prices up again around 3.52-3.59, a bit cheaper out in the boonies, but you burn more driving there and back than you would save

ridiculous

Golly, Shell only had a $9 Billion profit in the first quarter! One of the first to report, more to come later!

The Federal Govt gives subsidys for building new refiners and drilling to find oil to the Oil Companies!

Any new refiners being built lately?

So, I often wondered how oil gets so damn high except the American Dollar is being devalued so low and may go down a 1/4 % again.

Can someone explain how the Stockmarket can set the price of oil?

In OKC, we're still as "low" as $3.36.

I think we're paying like $3.40ish. Already my coworker & i are talking about car-pooling. There's no bus and the train would take 3x as long.

For regular? I pay that for premium. But I'm sure that's what we'll be paying for regular before too long...

And I thought the station around here that's 20 cents above everyone else [within 3 minutes] was bizarre.

I mentioned to my boyfriend yesterday that I wouldn't be surprised to see NJ hit $5 by the end of summer. Then he proceeded to get a devilish grin on his face, because by that point he will have sold his car and moved to Manhattan.
