Chili, NY. A suburb of Rochester. $3.46 at Byrne Dairy, a very popular spot, and across the road at the Sunoco the cash price was $2.99!!! Credit card was $3.09!

ugh, $4.50ish in Sacramento Ca depending where you go.

Here in the Raleigh, NC area, regular is at most places $2.99 gallon, i filled my daily up two days ago for $2.87.   93 octane runs around $3.75 gal most places.    Most experts expect prices to drop back to the $2.50 gal rate as there is a GLUT of oil on the markets despite the russia/Ukraine war.

$3 here in Central FL,

So is this Putin's price drop?

[cuda hunter]

YES.
Russia, Russia, Russia...

Actually it's largely China China China.  They keep shutting down due to Covid outbreaks which cuts their oil demand down a lot and thus increases world supply.
Along with economic slowdowns across the globe.
Fingers crossed they keep shutting down indefinitely, otherwise all bets are off. 
Economics 101, supply and demand.

Good lord. I haven't seen prices that low in years it seems like. Definitely wasn't that low in most of the midwest in December.

$2.69 for regular at Exon today in Houston. If I want to wait in line at COSTCO theirs is 10 cents a gallon less.

There needs to be a sarcasm font, my point was,

ALL administrations (same in the business world) shift blame for things they are party to causing, and claim credit for things they had no hand in........

Gas is currently around $3.69 here, but prices are always fairly high in northeast Illinois.
Doing my investment research, I've seen it reported that a lot of refineries are scheduled to be down for overhauls and maintenance this spring, which will certainly bring pain at the pumps for most or all of us in US this spring into summer.
Hopefully they can get the work done promptly and get the refineries back up and working full bore to get things down in time that the whole cruising season isn't hurt.  I've been planning to do more trips to further away shows now that I have a rig.  Moparty again but that isn't until September, but maybe Nats in August and I'd like to try to hit that MCACN summer show at the Gilmore museum in Michigan in late June.  Whether gas is $3.50 or closer to $6 this summer will have a lot of effect on my motivation to be driving my 11 MPG rig much!!
