Default Gas prices in the villages?

Just curious, don't want to beat this to death, still up north packing and our gas is now $3.56. Can anyone advise the price there? Thank You

Here's a good source for checking on current gas prices anywhere in the U.S.:

GasBuddy.com - Find Low Gas Prices in the USA and Canada

You might have to diddle with the search parameters a bit to zero in on a specific area of gas stations. Use different cities/towns around TV (Fruitland Park, Lady Lake, Wildwood, etc.) or various zip codes.

Yeppers. 250cc. Don't know how fast it will go. I chickened out at 60 on 44 when I brought it home. Now just use it to go from Pickle Ball court to Pickle Ball court so it rarely gets to 40 but it does get around 75 mpg .

I just went by there at about 4 PM and I believe I saw the price as $3.55 for Reg.

Default and if you have a Winn Dixie card

you get 5 cents off every $50 spent which you apply toward purchase at any Shell gas station (which seems to be very easy for me)....I was in line yesterday and one of the customers said she filled her suburban for 38 cents total...Wow!

Default Colony Shell Station / 466A

This guy on 466a is always 10 to 15 cents a gallon more than the stores on 466. Also watch for them to throw a cash only price on you at some point which makes the price per gallon more than advertised. Just Be Aware!!!

These prices are why I love my electric Golf cart! Especially since I am renting and electricity is included in my rent amount. I only fill up my car once a month!

I paid $3.69 per gallon today at Colony. High test was $3.99. Good thing I only needed a little over 3 gallons to fill up my cart for the next 3 weeks.
