$2.69/gallon!
I passed a station this morning that was down to $2.69/gallon for regular. Nice to see it dropping so far and so fast. Of course, I'd rather pay a little more for gas and not have my portfolio going down the toilet but I'll be happy for the little savings at the pump.

Wow! I commented to DH that the station I pass was down to $2.89. I paid $2.89 south of town a few days ago when this station was $3.09. Leads me to believe south of town is probably down to $2.69. No reason to drive down there for a few days though - but I'll probably gas up there when I do!

Regular is about $2.85 here right now. I agree, DS, it's very nice to be paying $30 to fill up rather than nearly $40. It's a significant difference when you're filling up just about once a week. Unfortunately, my car requires premium, so I'm still buying at about $3.09, but still... very nice.

Makes me want to move to Mizzou. I've been holding out on buying heating oil. I know prices for oil generally go down til Thanksgiving and hopefully this trend holds. I'm so tempted to fill my tank up.

We should have never paid the ridiculous price we did when it was high. The gas stations just took advantage of us.

It had/has nothing at all to do with the gas stations. They don't set the price of oil and gasoline.

It's really sad when we get excited about gas costing less than $3/gallon isn't it?

You all have nice prices! Where I am at, gas per gallon is at 3.55. About a week ago it was around 3.88 so no complaints here!

Poor gas stations operators, they get all the flak and none of the profits... the people who should be pissed off at is the OPEC cartel. They're talking about restricting supply because prices have fallen so quickly. The best thing we can do is lower demand.
