$2.97 at the closest Walmart.  A little over $3 at most other places around town.

I should point out that $5.99 was at Costco, which is usually the "cheap" place. 

Of course, it was also for 91 octane... Regular wasn't that expensive.

Gas at the station I’m looking at, which is in the middle a bit on the pricey side, is sitting just short of four bucks. So that’s wild.

Two days of hard labor with no results on a project I was doing.  I didn't have something that I should have had, and I thought I could get by without it, but turns out I was sorely mistaken.  

Had to abandon the job, and regroup.  Will pick back up next week.  

Grumpy.

3.59 is the cheapest I've seen in my neck of the woods.

It will come down. The oil companies are screwing us right now, IMO.

Ed Zachery - 20% of the world's oil supply - I'm sure the rest of the world is pumping overtime to capitalize on the high prices

And almost none of it is our supply.

We get ours from home, and also Canada and Mexico. Only a very small amount comes across the ocean.

It's so weird in my neck of the woods, these people actually are happy when the price of crude jumps.  The county has been the #1 oil producer in the State for the past ~60 years.

I guess if you have interest in a well pumping a few hundred barrels a week, it's worth the $.90/gallon jump to put in your Escalade.
