In Tampa, Raceway gas, 3.15 for regular, 3.80 for Super.   Good for now.

Here in Raleigh 87 octane is between $2.97-$3.22    and 89 ranges from $3.25 - $3.55   93 runs $3.60 - $4.25     Lately ive been putting 89 plus pint of Octane Booster in my 408 Chally and she runs just fine on that...   PS...i buy the octane booster at a Dollar Store for $1.25 which when i put in 12 gallons works out to an extra .10 per gallon.   

Sure wish the war between Russia and Ukraine stops soon...   I would expect a .50 drop across the board once Russian oil flows freely again.

My convertible and the Magnum seem happy with 87.  The two six packs not so much.

2.82?  That is amazing really.  I can't even find a co op in the eastern plains that has anything less than 3.19. 
Where did you find that?  Discounted from safeway with your points?   Or what?

All around Colo pPgs, prices are $3.05 to 3.15.  Club stores like Sams and Costco are regularly $.40-.45 cents lower per gallon.

Nope on Safeway points, there are 4 gas stations right off of I25 that must have a price war going on.

Well, now 15 days later I can't find anything less than 3.47.  Even at the CoOp that I go to.
Prices rising again.

Oh yea, the Firestone exit. Those stations there are always price fighting. Every time we go up north, we time it to fill up there. Bit of a zoo with all the traffic navigating between all teh stations and islands.

Yea, Suncore is doing more maintenance again and has shut down some of their capacity.  They seem to do this every 2-3 months since their big problems last year.

Yippee...regular gas prices have dropped to about $2.99 at many of the stations here in the Raleigh area.   Yesterday, i bought regular unleaded for $2.81 ...then on the way home i say two stations at $2.76.   WOW...

Also three of the Sheetz stations were selling their "E88" at $2.49 but i was too low on gas to wait till i got to them.   E88 as i understand it contains up to 15% ethanol but they call id E88 because is 88 octane, where normal unleaded is 87 and contains up to 10% Ethanol.   I have used it in the past when they first started selling it as it was 50cents a gallon cheaper than 87 gas, and found no difference at all in my 2008 Sebring that had flex fuel rating.   But then they started raising the price to where their E88 was only 5 cents less.   Now its back to 50 cents and next tankful im buying it at $2.49...yippee !!
