I just filled up at my local Shell. Regular gas for $2.79 a gallon and I used reward points from a store so I got it for $2.69 a gallon.

Here in South Carolina I have seen gas as cheap as $2.29 a gallon. Closer to my house gas averages around $2.35 a gallon.

I was surprised to see gas get below $3.00. I later wished to see prices below $2.50 and surprisingly prices reached that. I will be very surprised if prices drop to $2.00.

It is around $2.60/gallon, down here in central Florida.

When we were in Texas last week, we paid around $2.35 for regular unleaded. A couple of days after we headed back, dear wife's best friend texted us a picture of the sign in front of the little gas station we were buying gas from there. $1.99!!!! :|

On the way back, via mostly I-10, we paid an average of $2.57 along the route through west Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. We tend to run premium gas in the wife's and my vehicles (2012 Durango R/T and 2011 Ram 1500 Big Horn) because both of them have 5.7L Hemi engines, but we don't always do that. Throughout the entire Texas trip, we never paid over $2.80/gallon for 93 octane (they sell 93 octane in TX and some other parts of the South). The Durango is certified to burn E85 gas, but I wouldn't ever put that in that vehicle, unless I absolutely had to.

Here in Vegas, Sam's Club, up on the corner from us, is selling regular unleaded for $2.60, as of the day before yesterday, when I filled my truck up. I paid $2.80 for 91 octane.

They say that gas prices are headed down again???? :clap:

Trev 12-10-2014 06:51 PM

Here in Missouri, it's $2.48 a gallon. Filling up My truck is not as painful.

clay 12-16-2014 10:06 PM

$2.44 and dropping.......yay

girl_dee 12-16-2014 10:17 PM

Not to be a party pooper but all these gas prices dropping means that many people are out of work who work on the oil rigs down here in the South.

Not a good thing during the holidays.

Thank you and carry on....

Why are people out of work? Gas prices have gone down, but we're still using the same amount. Am i missing something?

Not being sarcastic or mean...really don't understand.:bunchflowers:

Until recently, California consistently had some of the highest gas prices in the US, in spite of having refineries.

I paid $2.69 a gallon this week.

A rule of thumb is that roughly 50 percent of total capacity is gasoline production (about 1.0 million barrels of gasoline - 42 million gallons - is produced per day).

Terminal Facilities

California's nearly 100 terminals receive petroleum and petroleum products by tanker, barge, pipeline, rail or truck. Most of California's terminals are marine terminals. At these facilities petroleum or product is transferred from or to tankers or barges. Tankers loaded with Alaska North Slope petroleum, for example, enter marine terminals in northern and southern California, where the crude oil is then sent to refineries by pipeline for processing. An example of pipeline receipts of petroleum at a terminal is heavy California petroleum produced in the Bakersfield area that is sent by pipeline to a refinery at Martinez.

Terminals also serve as refiner's wholesale distribution points for products. Product, such as gasoline, is sold to distributors (jobbers) who then sell to consumers through the distributors' own retail stations. The distributor may also resell the gasoline to other station dealers. Gasoline can also be sold directly to station dealers from the terminal. The marketing structure differs depending on the type of product being sold.

Love the Gas Price Thread and the Weather Report Thread!

Gas is 91.2 cents and the temp is -3 :snowballfight:

Hey, Anya. I'm lost. What is the point you are trying to get across by having the below article and is it somehow in response to dee's comment? I am totally missing the boat on what the article is saying, I suppose.

In Charlotte the cheapest I've seen is 2.47. The norm seems to be 2.52-2.55 right now. It's about .10 cheaper (or more) in SC which is not far... If I'm going that way I get it but I'm not going to SC anytime soon....
