Actually, I just asked a gas station clerk how much profit there is for them. And its 8 cents per litre! Imagine that.

I'm only really envious of one person (a friend, and one of two roommates in a 3 bedroom apartment) , and it's because he had experiences over a 3 year period that no one can ever have again re permanent changes due to war. Between 1988 and 1991 he would work a crazy number of hours for four months at two different jobs (lifeguard..employed by the state...at a state beach in California...and his other job was working as an EMT). He lived very frugally during those 4 months and then traveled very frugally the other 8 months of those years. He concentrated on Asia, Africa, and on remote island nations. He dressed up as a local and found a way to get into Afghanistan. He visited Babylon...and many other places in Iraq. He got pelted by rocks in Nablus after being seen having a conversation with an Israeli soldier..and had to run for cover. Those are the crazy jaunts I recall most easily. I remember, on one of the postcards he sent to me during this period, he indicated that gas in Saudi Arabia (another one of the countries he visited) was the equivalent of 12 cents USD per U.S. Gallon, rather than the 12 cents USD per liter/litre it is today. |

I filled up a 0.97 /L and saw one gas station selling it for 0.96 /L today. That's the cheapest I have seen it in many, many years.

......but while I'm at it .....Last week (IIRC) I saw a gas price feature on the local news (NYC Metro station). The feature wasn't about NY/NJ area gas prices, it was about a group of gas stations in Oklahoma City (apparently all in the same neighborhood) that had lowered their prices for regular grade gas to $1.99 USD per U.S. gallon. A harbinger of things to come? Last edited by nookandcrannycar; 12-12-2014 at 08:26 AM. |

Last night, on a Dallas radio station, one of the talk show hosts mentioned that the gas station in downtown Dallas that had lowered it's price for 97 octane to $1.99 (USD per U.S. Gallon), had multiple people at a time just managing the lines for a good portion of the weekend.
I needed gas this morning, and checked Gas Buddy. The 15 cheapest stations in the Houston Metro ranged from $1.95 USD per U.S. Gallon to $2.09 per U.S. Gallon. Only three of those = North of Interstate 10 (the northern half of the Houston Metro), and only one of those in my neck of the woods....a Sam's Club...I'm not a member. I plugged in a local zip code...and the prices were outrageous (cheapest $2.38 9/10), given other locations. Fortunately, Gas Buddy has a 'new' feature (at least new to me ) that includes zip codes close to the one the user searched |

A new low by today, I saw gas at 1.49x/litre! I really hope we go back to the times when gas was at 0.89/litre (like 10 years ago haha)

I paid $2.16 9/10 USD per U.S. gallon on Monday 12/8/14 in Tomball,TX. This was the 3rd cheapest price within the Houston Metro. One station had a cash price of $2.09 9/10 and another station had a credit card price of $2.15 9/10.

$2.45 this am is South Jersey.
If we had $2.10 gas here people might start to get optimistic in their daily outlooks!

Didn't think I'd ever see it under a dollar again.
