Airehead Posted April 22, 2019 Share #1 Posted April 22, 2019 Here they are up 25 cents in two weeks and 60 cents since January. How about in your area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddmaxx Posted April 22, 2019 Share #2 Posted April 22, 2019 For some reason we seem to be going up more slowly than the reports say. I haven't purchased any gasoline in the last couple of weeks however so perhaps there will be sticker shock when I do. IMO the excuses (refinery maintenance and shortages of ethynol) are simply excuses because they can. This is simply part of the gouging cycle.........lower prices till people go back to buying larger vehicles and then rake in the profits till they stop. Rinse and repeat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Far Posted April 22, 2019 Share #3 Posted April 22, 2019 They're up. ~$2.60 for regular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team scooter Posted April 22, 2019 Share #4 Posted April 22, 2019 Trickling up. Over $2.90 last I looked. Over $3.00 per is when I start thinking about hibernating the truck and watching the gas prices. Luckily Blue gets 40 mpg and the motorcycles get over 65 per.

JerrySTL Posted April 22, 2019 Share #6 Posted April 22, 2019 Around $2.89 in Illinois and more like $2.70 in Missouri. Illinois is about to raise our gasoline tax by 20 cents a gallon shortly. I'll be buying my gasoline in Missouri every chance that I get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisL Posted April 22, 2019 Share #8 Posted April 22, 2019 It’s gone up around $1 a gallon the last month or so. I paid $3.99 a couple of days ago but that was at an Arco. Chevron was $4.10. Time to start going back to Costco and waiting an hour to save a few bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the past 25 years I never paid for my gas, car or car allowance & fuel card were part of my package. This is the first job without it...

Kzoo Posted April 22, 2019 Share #13 Posted April 22, 2019 Gas prices have been bouncing all over the place here the last couple weeks. This morning I saw prices at 2.48 and 2 exits down to was 2.77. The prices just seem to bounce back and forth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted April 22, 2019 Share #14 Posted April 22, 2019 Y'all are a bunch of lightweights. We have a wonderful new "carbon tax" here thanks to JT so we can be all environmentally friendly so I am paying the equivalent of 4,40 per gallon (US). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filled up Apr. 7, it's still full. It'll be mid-May before I need gas again, possibly June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the money will get into politicians pockets. The current bill under consideration doesn't put the money only into road improvement. It also goes to things like mass transit in Chicago which doesn't help us downstate people much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well an hour is an exaggeration, probably 20 minutes waiting in line, 30 if I went on a weekend and Costco isn’t convenient so maybe add 20 minutes for the drive there & back. I fill up weekly and Costco is usually $.30 less a gallon than Arco so it does add up over a month. When gas gets over $4 a gallon I start going to Costco and save a few bucks but add to the hassle.

About the same here. I wonder if your area, like ours, has to reformulate the gas for the warmer months, which raises the price, or so I have been toldhttps://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=PET&s=EMM_EPMRU_PTE_STX_DPG&f=W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
