Amira Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I keep reading that gas prices have dropped a lot in the US. If you're there, how much is it where you are? If you're not in the US, have gas/petrol prices (for your car) dropped for you? They haven't for us in Mexico- the price of gas increases very slightly here each month and isn't dependent on the price of oil. We're paying about four dollars a gallon. Actually, that's just what I'm told. I've never figured out exactly what we're paying because gas prices are never posted here, plus it's a headache to convert to both gallons and dollars. And the price is the same everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleEJ Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 It has dropped a ton here, too. And it is not good news for my DH, or anyone else employed by the oil industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marbel Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Today I saw $2.65/gallon and $2.41/gallon at 2 different stations within 5 miles of each other. Here in the Philly suburbs, there is a wide range depending on the neighborhood. In New Jersey, just over the river, it is usually about 20 cents a gallon cheaper - and self-serve is illegal! It has been fluctuating a lot here. I can't even keep track anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Um_2_4 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Wow, I was thrilled when I found 2.39/gallon here in So Cal... I could dream for something less than $2.... (but I am happy that it dropped from 3.29!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VeteranMom Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 We are paying $1.99-2.10 in Colorado. With my fuel points, I filled my van for under $30 last week. That's the least I've ever paid to fill this specific vehicle. Makes me wonder when food prices will drop- now that the cost of transporting goods is decreasing. I don't think I should hold my breath for the price drops, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Corin Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Our highest prices in this part of Scotland were 132 pence per litre and they are hitting 109 pence right now (I can get further discounts, but that's the basic price). So that's around a 17% decrease. 109 pence per litre is over USD 6 per US gallon. L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zimom Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 $2.12 a gallon. We usually have some of the cheapest in the country so I'm curious why we haven't dropped under $2 yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemiSweet Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 It is $2.79 in Hawaii on base today, which is usually the same as Costco. Since I've lived here it has hovered around $4.10-$4.20 a gallon. I filled up for $52 on Friday, it was great! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndGenHomeschooler Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 It's $2.79 near us here in CT. If I drive about 30min away to our closest BJ's I can get it for $2.57. We have some of the highest gas taxes in the country so we're always higher than surrounding states. It would be awesome if we got under $2 a gallon but I don't expect that to happen. I'm just happy we're not over $4 any more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just read that to DH, and he said, in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, but our state services will ramp up, so we'll get our money's worth." I appreciated that I filled my twelve seater for under $2 a gallon the other day. Well, not filled, but 25 out of the 30 or so gallons it holds. $50 is way better than the $90 or $100 it was the first day I drove it home from the dealership!

They have been doing better lately IMO. I'm not sure why we need a higher gas tax than most other states though (NY excepted I think). We are lower in price than MD right now - at least - between us and BWI. Last year and earlier this year they were always lower than we were. I'm not sure why things changed.

It is the only gas station inside of a more expensive in general area. We got gas in the downtown touristy area for $2.11 today. Cheapest gas anywhere in the entire city is around $1.80.
