Back down below $4, and my poll answer is correct again.
$3.89ish.

Unleaded in Perth is cheaper - about $1.45 per liter, compared to $1.55+ in Melbourne.

At the moment, in the whole country, cheapest 1.399€ per liter, most expensive 1.569€ per liter.
And if my calculations are correct... $7.90 and $8.80 per gallon. Not exactly cheap...

So the price of oil has dropped to USD103 per barrel and yet, the local price of petrol is still hovering around the $1.49 mark for unleaded. So much for the correlation between global oil price and the price at the local pump.

Now it's $3.70 for gas, and a little under $4 for diesel. I hope it all keeps going in that direction.

Here in East Tennessee the price has gone to a maddening 5.49$ a gallon! Gas stations across several counties have already run out. Over here, its pandemonium. I've never seen this before. I heard on Thursday that prices would spike this high from a gas station attendant no less. Perhaps this could be the problem.... This woman was telling every customer that prices would be over 5 bucks a gallon by tomorrow (Friday) and these people ended up going and telling more people. This lead to panic and now we have stations out of gas or the ones that do have a 30$ limit. I managed to get some pictures on my camera yesterday, I'll see how they turned out. I'll post pics of the long gas lines if they showed up. (hard driving down the road when cars are hanging out of the parking lots into the streets in line for gas)
This is madness... more to come soon...
luckily LLR filled up the sunfire before all this happened..

The Governer of Kentucky said yesterday that "there is absolutely NO reason for these prices, (obviously the same is going on up there) this is gouging and they stores joining in will be punished with fines. The hurricane had not even hit yet and Texas oil refineries are always off line from Friday morning to Monday morning (is this right?)"
With that said just what the heck is going on in our part of the country?! This is MADNESS! many people that come into our shop are there on vacation, they were basically STRANDED out there because either the prices of gas were WAY to high to go back home or they didn't have enough gas to get to a new station. (prices seemed to be higher the farther south you went towards Georgia.. Is there anyone from Georgia on the forum? How about Florida? South Carolina? Sound off, ya'll! Its mad max country over here! Whats going on out there?

Darn, that link won't work now for me...  On a happier note, regular gas is dipping just under $3 a gallon in some places near me, and diesel is mostly either the same as premium or between mid grade and premium. |

Unleaded is $1.10 per liter average at home, but still $1.24 per liter average in Perth. No idea why it's so much more expensive out west.

Gas is between $1.95 and $1.80 here for regular now. When it finally dropped below $2, I cried genuine tears of joy when I filled up my car. You have no idea how happy I was.

A more appropriate title for this thread at this point in time would be "How LOW are gasoline prices in your area?" Ha!  Anyway, here in Tracy it's about $2.15 on average for regular and about $2.80 on average for diesel. BTW, I finally found out why diesel is more...big rigs (or semi-trucks for you laymen, haha!) run on it for the most part. And since they're so big and heavy, not only do they waste a lot of fuel, but they also tear up the roads, and since the government pays for roads using tax dollars, I presume, diesel has an extra tax on it. I'm guessing if it weren't taxed, it be equal to gas in price, if that. I wish they'd develop a special sanction of diesel fuel for truckers and a special sanction for us. The one for the truckers would be taxed more, and it would be illegal for anybody but truckers to use it. The other group for all of us would be the same diesel fuel but without that big tax on it, and it would be illegal for truckers to use it. I can dream, can't I? 8) |
