My local gas price is now 1.99. What's yours?

This morning I bought gas at Wawa for $3.13 a gallon. This is a considerable drop from what I've been paying. I'm grateful for the reduced price, but I've never seen the price go down here when it's apparently going up in other regions of the country. I'm not sure what that's about.
 
Just filled up. It was $66.49 so about $5.11 a gallon.



Is it still only 9/10th of a gallon?
 
Dropped to $5.49 at Fred Meyer, so with my discount I paid "only" $4.64 on my last fill-up -- it still nearly hit $100.

It's $5.69 at the farmer's co-op, $5.89 at Shell, and $5.99 at Chevron. When the price between the last two are different it means the price is changing, ad since Chevron was $5.89 on Friday that would suggest that by tomorrow Shell will be $5.99, the Co-op will be $5.79, and Fred Meyer $5.79.

I had to buy a sheet of plywood last week and these fuel prices have really inflated the cost, since there's fuel to log the trees, fuel to transport logs to a mill, fuel to run the mill, fuel to ship the plywood to the distribution center, and fuel to haul it from the distribution warehouse to stores.
The only good news about plywood is that lumber companies are starting to be honest about the fact that they reduced the thickness of all plywood by 1/32", which netted $ millions in profit and pissed off every contractor in the nation (it's amazing how that tiny difference can screw up a system where everyone knows by experience how thick a wall will be, or a floor)! So I bought an actual 11/32" sheet labeled that way instead of how companies were (and some still are) labeling them as 3/8".
 
Last time I bought gas on 10/2, it was $3.50.

I was at the grocery store today and food prices have really jumped in the last two weeks. :mad:
 
Part of the price drop in Florida is temporary. It seems that the state passed a "tax holiday" on gas for the month of October. Not at the peak of the prices back in spring, when it would have been the most helpful, but to help DeSantis and Company in the upcoming elections. Still, that can't be the whole story, since it dropped right after hurricane Ian. I'm speculating, though I don't know for sure, that there may have been a temporary "glut" in South Florida, which wasn't really hit by the storm. It seems that most gasoline sold in Florida is shipped into from refineries in the Caribbean to ports in the state, and then shipped by tanker trucks to their destinations. It is possible that some tankers may have been diverted to Port Everglades (Ft. Lauderdale) that were headed to Tamps and Jacksonville because of the storm, and then couldn't be shipped to the storm-ravaged sections of the state. And then, with the devastation, there really was no place for the weekend warriors to go.

But the price is still going up. I've seen prices in the 3.28-3.39 per gallon range, and they're supposed to go higher in the next couple of weeks. I suspect Floridians will be paying a lot more for gas, come Thanksgiving and Christmas.
 
The horse just requires hay and the occasional carrot or a sugar cube.
 
I saw 3.25 in the duh today…
 
I bought gas today, and it has risen to $3.38 a gallon, and we're still under the tax holiday. In Palm Beach Gardens, which tends to have some of the highest prices in the area, gas was selling at $3.99 per gallon. It's going up here, folks.
 
Bought gas today. I paid $3.05 per/gal but that was with a 30cent per/gal discount using my loyality rewards card.
 
The good news - SHELL and other BIG OIL had record profits!
