Our gas is 3.57 a gallon in NY. After all, we are the tax state. I'll be glad when I don't have to pay these prices any more or pay the taxes. Most of our additional cost of gas is taxes.

...I get that there would be a 4 cent Increase for E-10 (10% Ethanol) on New Years Day, due to the ending of the subsidy given ethanol producers. (and 40 cent increase for E-85).........BUT.... after recently spending 3 weeks in Alabama...Mississippi and Texas and NEVER spending more than 2.99/gal... it was a shock to see the Florida prices were still high.

Went from 3.18 to 3.51 in about a week at Circle K Shell on Hwy 27/441. So what's the reason this time? Iran? Shifting to winter blend? No energy policy? George W. Bush? No drilling? Oil Companies decided it was time to go for more record profits? Too much dependence on foreign oil? Global warming? Our addiction to oil? All of the above?

Use to live in The Keys every time a tanker crossed a bridge (42 of them) gas went up a nickle. 10 Years ago in England I know gas was ten dollars for imperial gal. Hate to say it and there is no excuse but we are still doing OK. Another post for 4.25 a gal. by summer, wait thats not the only thing that is going up. The old saying of the 60's (out of site)

That's about the price in the NYC suburbs.
Where is it where someone is paying $6.25 ?

:cus: Buyers beware!!!! He has a sign that reads 354.9 for regular per gallon, however, this is a ploy by this station that is for cash only purchase! Which there is no sign stating that!! If you use credit card, even a Shell Credit card, the price is 379.9 per gallon!!! This owner continues at attempting to rip off consumers because he is the only station in that area. And of course, there are folks that continue to buy from them...!!!:ohdear:

WOW - That one heck of a surcharge, (25 cents per gallon), for using one's credit card. I pay 3.55 per gallon with a 10 cent surcharge for use of credit card in CT. I believe that should be the standard charge for CC use.
I guess more of a reason to tool around TV in an electric cart. :)
Thanks for posting this info.

Holy Moley!! When we were there last month, they had no surcharge for using a credit card! We'll definitely pay attention when we're down there next month.

I was down in Wildwood today and gas at the Sunoco station at 301/44 was $3.39 a gallon which is 10 cents less a gallon than the two Shell stations on466.

Read/heard on a link I get on the "net" that the prices are up because of wargames going on in the Persian Gulf. The Iranians are doing shenanagans too and folks (??) are scared or some such thing! It will be "interesting" to see these things played out. Personally, I feel it's all 'smoke and mirrors'......

the only positive side of higher gas prices is maybe the fickle Americans will get up in arms and insist on energy independence so we don't have to worry about war games elsewhere in the world to price our gas.
Gasoline from foreign oil can only continue to increase in price. So $4-5 per gallon will be a reality sooner or later. Building higher gas mileage cars is not the answer. Energy independence is the ONLY answer.

So it would appear that it is price of oil futures and speculators are at it again. Possible trouble with Iran drives the price up.
Seems like it was only a week or two ago that it was reported that in the prior month we exported more oil than we inported. Guess we exported the low cost stuff and imported the high cost stuff.

while I do not know for sure, but I would expect there are American oil companies that are still exporting. Hence there is never a reduction of demand regardless the reduced consumption by Americans...therefore we see the effect of pricing changes and NEVER get the advantage of a surplus condition.
We the people on the short end of the stick....business and politics first as usual!!!

I guess one would need cheap gas in Laramie, as it would take one forever to get anywhere;) By the way, our gas was $3.05 today.

Actually there is no recognized place as Lake Viking Mo., Gallatin, and Cameron are the nearest actual towns to our lake development, each about 12-15 miles away.
