I'm here on the left coast, and as soon as BP announced problems with their pipeline prices went up (I mean within 1/2 hr!!!)

They have been slowly going up from there, even though commodity prices are going down.

I'm not talking at the Marina, most of us buy fuel for the boat and the rig that pulls it at the local, so where are you and what is it costing you?

$3.17
$3.27
$3.34
And the killer....
$3.54 for diesel

87 octane here is 2.87. I'm with vipzach, you start thinking that if you're under 3.00 you're getting a good deal! Hurts to fill a 70 gallon boat tank!!!

Here in east/central VA the price changes nearly every day, up and down (less often). Today I can get10% ethanol 87 octane for $2.639/gal. Tha't why I'm thankful for only 150 hp and a 16 gal. tank in my Baja sunsport 200. My GMC Yukon XL, on the other hand....:'(

Guess we're the "lucky" one's at $2.62 a gallon. It's like they're practially giving it away! Sheesh.

God have mercy on the minimum wagers.
