I am interested in seeing how gas prices are rising in your area. If you have a cell phone with a camera, take a snapshot of your local gas station and post it here. As you can see we're already at $3.29 a gallon. <img src="http://www.foundrymusic.com/common_images/member_galleries/19_Image052.jpg" border="1" />

Gas in Mclean, where I work (and where all the rich people live), is always cheaper than where I live in Arlington - might have something to do with the CIA being here, or all of the rich people who work for big oil, etc, but it is always a good .20 - .30 cheaper.I haven't seen it today, but yesterday McLean was anywhere from 2.69 - 2.99. Last year the national average was about $1.86, which (as I said elsewhere) seems downright quaint now.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v64/curtoid/surf.jpg" border="0" />

does this affect mortgage interest rates at all...i'm about to start looking at buying and was hoping rates would stay as low as they are now.  i thought i remember hearing this type of thing will help keep them low and that any rise will take a while.  hopefully the rate stays under 6 thru December.  oh...on route 23 near West Milford my gas was $2.69 for regular, but only a little further up it was $2.89<img src="http://hometown.aol.com/satelitecam/images/sig_wk.jpg" border="0" /> thanks for the sig SatCam...and thanks for bringing it back Furie

i drove by 2 gas stations, which are right next to each other. one was
$3.19 and the other was  $3.39 for regular unleaded. president
bush is releasing oil from the national reserves. the question is...how
long is it going to take to get into the system for people to use? and
will it make any difference in price?

All right - just did the 15 mile drive home from McLean, VA. The cheapest was $2.89; there was a lot of $2.99; some $3.05; and one $3.15. The place where I got the cheap gas yesterday had nothing on their sign when I drove by today (either they were changing it, or they actually ran out of gas). The most expensive was actually back in McLean, at a little indie station across the street from the CIA - $3.57 for regular. YESTERDAY they were $2.79.

The cheapest I saw $2.99 at an Exxon in Eastchester, NY. At one of those "generic" gas stations it was actually 20 cents more

O and A... PARTY ROCK!!!!!

Bulldogcakes

09-01-2005, 06:13 PM

At $3.20, gas is 20 cents a cup. And that cup will get you
transported about 1-2 miles. Try getting a cab, Rickshaw, or your Uncle
Bob to carry your fat ass a mile for 20 cents. Still the best deal in
town, folks. And alot of this is because the power that
supplies the pipelines (One runs up the entire eastern seaboard) that
brings the raw oil to the refineries is off. When they get New Orleans
back up and running power wise (about 1-2 weeks) prices will ease back.
This should last no longer than a month. I
think a better question to ask is why we have such tight refining
capacity (Each runs at 98%) and why we haven't built a refinery in the
past 25 years. Why? Environmental regulations, Not in my backyard,
Byzantine federal regulations, etc, etc. The most recent refinery built in the US took 10 years to have its permits approved.  My
answer? Eliminate all gas taxes, ease environmental regulations where
you can and allow all existing refineries to increase capacity by
25-50%

Just to add to the "This will effect everything else" idea, I have large parts truck freighted to our service department all the time.  The base price to freight something to us now is about 130 fucking dollars!  It's only gone up the past few months.  So I had to tell a lady last week that her 60 dollar ladder for the back of her trailer was going to cost her double it's own worth to get freighted because of gas priced.  She said she'd think about it and get back to me.

Here's how I look at gas prices.I fill my tank about twice a week (I use my car for work) At $2.50 costs about $50 for two tankfulls $3.00 costs about $60 for two tankfulls$3.50 costs about $70 for two tankfulls$4.00 costs about $80 for two tankfullsSo
its about $10 a week for me that everyone's bitching about.  And I
drive about 3x as much as the average citizen (30k per year) Does anyone really think the US economy is going to collapse over $3-$10 a week?

you brought that up. Most 18 wheelers (and even some smaller trucks)
carry thousands of pounds of product. Figure the price per item with
the price increase. Doubt you'll get a fraction of a penny per item. Everybody
thinks the inflation of the 70's was caused by the Arab Oil Embargo,
and that was only a small factor. Most of that inflation was in the
pipeline from Nixon's wage and price controls and Fords "WIN" Whip
Inflation Now", along with some very bad monetary policy. Oil was the
scapegoat, but nothing in economics is ever that simple. Notice we haven't had alot of inflation in other areas despite Gas prices climbing for the past few years?

Bulldogs I tried to make the same point today at work. its not like we went from 25 cent gas to 4 dollars. it has been 2 bucks for a while, and now it is 3. people just need something to bitch about sometimes. i could see if it were 6 or 7 a gallon. this is a special case, and hopefully prices can and will drop in a month or so.  if not blams india and china who are eating up the oil as they continue to grow

I don't understand, its ALWAYS been cheaper in NJ as compared to NY since I moved here.  The station in the picture Jeff posted yesterday is now $3.55.  In NY where my sister is, its $3.35.  30 minutes north of here you can still get gas in Edison for $2.99. WTF.  I think the station down the street from me is price gouging.  I'm not gonna bitch too much, I live 2 miles from work.

Missy, NJ is known for having the lowest gas tax on their gas- also since in NJ you cannot pump your own gas you must have an attendent pump it-  i think it is a lil luxury when i am in NJ to have my gas pumped and cheaper gas pricesFull service in PA is friggin rediculous in the price per gallon one has to pay- I actually like pumping my own gas here in PA and i never go to full serve

O and A... PARTY ROCK!!!!![/quote] The generic gas stations aren't locked in, which usually helps them get the cheeper rate. Now it's hurting them and their ability to assure supply. HEY! My gas station that I mentioned earlier in the thread, the one I got the gas 2 days ago and then yesterday had nothing up, was mentioned in the Washington Post. This guy is always the cheepest, and will continue to get my business once this madness settles down:<div> </div><div>Harry Chang put up the "Sold Out" signs at his Chesterbrook Excel station on Old Dominion Drive in McLean, but not because of a break in the supply chain from the hurricane. Chang, an independent dealer, ran out of gas Tuesday morning. He said that he could still buy gas to sell but that he didn't want to buy it at the post-Katrina prices. He said the lowest distributor price he knew about was $2.97, and when he added on federal and state taxes plus credit card fees and a 3-cent profit, he estimated that he would have to charge $3.47 a gallon.</div>That would make Chesterbrook Excel one of the most expensive gas stations in the area. Chang said his station prides itself on being usually one of the cheapest. If he charged $3.47, "nobody would come," said Jose Rivera, who works at the station.

If I find the person that started the fuel shortage rumor in Marlyland, I am going to give them the Louima treatment
with a full-handle sling blade. It's bad enough trying to get out of
Monkey county on a normal day with all the people with too much money
and time on their hands and not enough to do butcause traffic jams. Try

The Mobil O.T.R on stewart behind Rossevelt field was 3.09 Friday night/ sat morning and was up to 3.29 last night, but went DOWN to 3.19 around 4am.  They were getting a supply and may have just wanted to sell whatever they could real fast before jacking the new price.

Gas is $1.30 a gallon here, and when it doubled to that price a month or so ago when the gov lifted the 50% subsidy overnight the whole country hit the streets in protests and riots for three days - at least 50 people dead. (The GNP here is about $500 per year, depending on who you believe, so the extra costs mean quite a bit more here than they do in the States.) It's cheaper because it's an oil exporting country, of course, but all the price raises mean to me is that I pay 12 cents for the bus now instead of 9. For a little perspective, keep in mind that when I left the country I was paying $1.70/gallon, which had risen from the $1.40 I was paying in DC four months earlier. This isn't just a recent 20 or 30 cent spike - it's a near doubling over the last couple of years.

It DID go down to 2.89 out here in the hills. If
you're refering to Greenwood Grocery, they did have their price for
Regular at $2.89, but they were out of regular. The Winchester Star had
an article in Saturday's paper about a rumor that caused a lot of
problems. People were responding to a rumor that gas pumps would be
shut down, all over the state, at 4:00PM. Some of the guys at
work fell for the false rumor. I told them, "If you want to know what's
in the news, LISTEN OR WATCH THE NEWS!!! Don't respond to stupid
redneck rumors!!!" One guy insisted that Bush had said that bread would
soon cost $5.00 a loaf. What tools!!!<a href="http://www.winchesterstar.com/TheWinchesterStar/050903/Area_rumors.asp" target="_self">Link To the Story 
</a>(you have to register to read it, but registering is no big deal. They don't spam you or anything.) What
amazes me is (with most stations around here being priced at $3.09 -
$3.19) people will still buy gas at Martin's Grocery for $3.41. Come on
people... you only have to drive 200 yards to get it at $3.19!!!!P.S. 
I'd just like to thank the people who have taken the gas prices into
consideration, when it comes time to tip their pizza guy. I've had many
people double their usual tips in the past couple of days. Though some
people still don't give a damn, some have been giving me tips that
almost bring me to tears!

I was only shy by less than a quarter tank, and saw the gas was about $3.49, so I kept driving and saw one station that had it at $3.39 so I topped off my tank..6 gallons worth..cost me like $20!  I drove out and went a mile down the road (my wife had insisted I wait and see a few more stations, did I listen?  ...noooooOOoo..) and saw another (also a Citco!) selling it at $3.30. But you kno what?  I also bought a 16 oz bottle of water for $1.50 in the same station.  I saw a Walgreens with a sign that said a gallon of milk = $3.50 A gallon of gas will carry me at least 30 miles.. How much would a cab cost to bring me 30 miles? How far will gallon of milk or water get me if I had to walk 30 miles?  I know its all a sore issue right now and I hate paying it too, especially knowing some stations are likely gouging, but I think we just have to adjust for it, maybe not drive so much if it can be avoided or not idle the car for a long time or run the AC when the windows open will keep you reasonably comfortable.  I wonder if there is a magic dollar amount that will make us stop driving? If it goes to $5 a gallon, will you change your driving habits?  <img src="http://www.chaoticconcepts.com/randomizer/random.php?uid=8" border="0" /> My Thanks to Just Jon, Reefdwella, ADF, Yerdaddy,Monsterone and Katylina for the sig-pic help and creation!Which Witch Wished Which Wicked Wish?

Does anyone think the price of gas will go down in a week or 2? Maybe under $3.

I say this time next week most gas stations in NY will be under $3.

I'm still going to use my car only when I have to. In a year or 2 $3 will be normal.

Well, I was very proud of myself for using my car very, very little this 3 day weekend. Actually, since I took Friday off too, it makes it 4 days that I've been very good with random, mindless driving (something I LOVE to do, dammit). Didn't drive at all today (took metro to the baseball game and back, which sucks, because what is usually a 10 minute trip was an hour - argh), and yesterday only drove down to Popeyes for those tasty "Naked Chicken Strips" and on Saturday and Friday, only for short trips that I would have walked had I not procrastinated. I even got out of not driving on a date on Saturday - I felt a little bit like a scumbag (more so than usual), but she's local and we didn't go that far, and with her new job she uses mass transit all time and never has to fill up her...ok, ok...I know...scumbag none-the-less.<div>

Some good news (http://news.ft.com/cms/s/3bda8212-1df7-11da-a470-00000e2511c8.html) Oil prices retreated to levels seen prior to the arrival of Hurricane
Katrina as the release of emergency fuel stocks by industrialised
nations soothed fears over a US energy crisis. We'll
see how long this takes to show up at the pump. But I'm still not sure
if were OK long term, with all those refineries out from the hurricane.

quote:  We'll see how long this takes to show up at the pump.   Yeah.After the hurricane, the east coast storage tanks were full, and the bastards jacked up the price as if they were already paying more, to hear-em tell it.Before the hurricane, the sumbitches were already colluding to see how much they could ream our asses.This brings back memories of the previous record price hike in the early 80s and in the mid 70s when we had that odd-even crap.Long afterwards it came out that both "crises" were phony and there was plenty of gas all along and both cases were simply cases of pure greed masked by a political situation.Until recently, the Saudi "allies" of ours were saying they were producing the max.Then last week, they said they were increasing production.

I seem to remember around that time there being talk on the news about how oil over $40 a barrel was breaching some sort of a psychological threshold and when it rose above that, we would start to see $2.00+ per gallon.  For the longest time it hovered btw 35-39 per barrel.  When it hit $40 it just kept going.

for U.S. oil and natural gas production in the Gulf of Mexico
to return to near pre-Hurricane Katrina levels, but it will
take even longer for that much production to make it to the
market, the U.S. government said Friday.
 Offshore energy companies will have the ability to produce
at about 90 percent of pre-storm oil and gas output in 30 to 40
days, said Johnnie Burton, director of the Interior
Department's Minerals Management Service.
 But some of it won't be able to make it to wholesale market
for as much as three months due to pipeline problems and
shutdowns of oil refineries and gas processing plants, Burton
told reporters at a new briefing.
