I bought regular unleaded gasoline today for $3.45⁹ about the same as last week but up 20 cents from the week before.

Topped off this afternoon with midgrade at $3.07. With my $.20 Kroger discount it was $2.87.

One bigger town over with about 10 stations they are all around 3.80$ here in my tiny still pump your own kinda station in Oregon it's 3.49$ but I think they offset this by selling EVERYTHING in the store for 10$ and a finger

I've never actually been to a gas station where you don't pump your own gas. I have had an employee offer once, and I must have given him a funny look. It was in a super touristy area.

it's flat out illegal here and the stations can get slapped with a pretty hefty fine, the only way around this is if you have like a Pacific pride account or the like basically un manned stations or if your on reservations that allow it.. or you live in a very small town where unless your obviously not from here they wouldn't put down there 99 Virginia slim to save your life

$3.19 last Friday, $3.29 on Wednesday, and $3.35 today. I have no idea how to do the cool 9/10 symbol. I'm kicking myself for not filling up the suburban last week. Talk about pain at the pump. I'm glad I'm not $3.80 like some of you.

Greywolf27 · « **Reply #13 on:** February 17, 2012, 07:09:24 PM »

I filled up at the Costco today.. $3.85... cheapest around....

ncjeeper · « **Reply #14 on:** February 17, 2012, 07:37:30 PM »

$3.69 to $3.81 range. Goes up a few cents about every other day.

Nicodemus · « **Reply #15 on:** February 17, 2012, 08:07:47 PM »

Thank goodness for the Kroger discount. I filled up last week for $2.30 a gallon. Everyone in the family shares a Kroger card, which also works for prescriptions so we usually get $1.00 off per gallon.

NWBowhunter · « **Reply #16 on:** February 17, 2012, 08:40:42 PM »

3.50 on Monday 3.65 two days ago 3.70 this morning 3.75 on the way home.

Heavy G · « **Reply #17 on:** February 17, 2012, 08:59:34 PM »

$3.69

monkeyboyf · « **Reply #18 on:** February 17, 2012, 09:15:28 PM »

$3.55 today out here

Cedar · « **Reply #19 on:** February 17, 2012, 09:35:47 PM »

Evening news just said its supposed to go up 20 more cents this coming week

Cedar

TexasGirl · « **Reply #20 on:** February 18, 2012, 12:18:18 AM »

Went up 10¢ this afternoon, from $3.29 to $3.39.

Saw two stations at $3.55, but they're always higher. Can't imagine them selling very much when you can coast down the hill to lower prices.

$3.09 this morning, bet the farm it'll be higher on my way home from work today

P_Coltrane · « **Reply #26 on:** February 18, 2012, 01:47:02 PM »

$3.07 last night, $3.49 this morning.

Glad I waited, the $3.49 is probably higher quality.

Nicodemus · « **Reply #27 on:** February 18, 2012, 02:46:45 PM »

$3.47 today as I drove past.
