Sorry Deadeye, I sold it years ago (1972) for $1300 -- bought it for $1695 in 1967. Talk about inflation! Disgust

On a weird note gas ended its raise at $1.89 and has actually dropped 1 cent over the past three days. This is just at one gas station that normally has the highet price in town and now they are at about the city average.

According to the tank farm concept, I should be able to get cheaper gas here in Bremen due to the proximity of Plantation Pipeline (one of your local Superfund sites, I might add).

GAs is $1.95 here as of today. Go figure.

I've been thinking about getting an adult tricycle. I don't think my fat a** can do a regular 2 wheeler anymore. Not sure my heart can stand the concept at all!

I'm figuring that in the great political wrestling match, GWB will open up the reserves just before the elections so that the price will go down briefly, and we can all thank him with our votes in November. But, then....I could be way too cynical.

Discouraging, but when I go to Europe then I feel fortunate. Even our high prices aren't close to what they pay.

(bump)

Note that the post before this one states $1.95 a gallon, 5/04.

Local QuikTrip down the road has it for $1.88. It's gonna be a loong year. Figured I'd bump this again just for grins..

and to point out a website I occasionally visit: Gas Price Watch. There are several of these types of sites, but this just happens to be the one I look at.

Yep. And what I said back then too! My opinion hasn't changed.

Then again, neither has my 3-mile commute. So, hahaha! Take that! Evil King

And they keep going up.

I filled up yesterday and the gas plus a hotdog, fountain drink, and chips came to over $50.

We may have to change the WannaGo events to WannaRideShare events....

Bumping this one up again as I found where someone combined GasBuddy and Google Maps to give you maps of the area and a table with lowest gas prices in the area.

Here is the url: CheapGas

When gas here on the coast gets below $2.00/gal, I'll let you know.

I paid $1.88/gal yesterday in alpharetta. It was nice not having to take a loan out just to fill the tank.

Thats the one thing I really miss about working off Mansell Road. Prices were the cheapest I could find.

I noticed it was 1.89 at the Kroger here in Macon today. Also noticed that the Enmark on Abercorn in Savannah gas dropped from $2.20 to $2.03 in a little over two weeks and in fact has gone down everyday for the past three or so days.

Yea, I know about Toccoa's cheap? gas. On occasion I have to go up there to pick up printing paper. I always make sure I need gas just before I go. It is 10-12 cents cheaper per gallon there, than in Cleveland.
Ingles here is 2.57 (minus 3 cents discount with card).

Well, there are about 10 stations in Atlanta metro under $2.50 list on the CheapGas website.
Lowest is $2.43 at the Shell in Lawrenceville.

It's tough to shop for cheap gas as they are rising so high. For me to drive to, say...Snellville from Suwanee to save even $.10 /gallon and filling my tank would only save me $2.00. I'd consume 1.5 gallons or cost me $3.64 in getting there actually costs me $1.64 more to do so. This doesn't make 'cents', and it'll only get worst.


Don't say you can't, say you'll try.

You definitely have to think about how much you want to go out of your way to save in cost only to lose money by consumption getting there.

I saw people yelling at a man with a 55 gal drum in the back of his truck who thought he'd fill it.

So a statewide emergency and frozen prices has happened. Frown

Toccoa is currently back in the list with the cheapest gas in ga $2.57 http://www.georgiagasprices.com

I never thought $2.57 a gallon would ever be the cheapest.
