Fuel prices

[skeets]

I went into town gas at one place was 3.99 for reg and 4.09 for diesel about 2 hours later, was 4.09 for regular and 4.79 for diesel.
And there was about a 3 mile long convoy of big trucks headed east onthe interstate

Saturday, 3.39, Today 3.59. Thats regular 89, diesel also went up 20 cents. This is at a station that has the lowest prices, closer stations have gone up 40-50 cents or more in the past 24 hours.

Price gouging?

I had the pleasure this morning to fill up a couple of 5 Gal jugs 1- diesel and 2- gas plus a top off on the truck. $4.49 for diesel, $4.05 for gas= $126.00 the truck only took 12 gal and the pump shut off for another swipe of the card. Oh I was carrying my .45 so I wasn't held up, I was just held up by buffoons.
Thanks to all in charge!

$1.75 for 'cheap' gas $1.86 diesel...that's per liter !!! I expect it to go to the 'magical' $1.99 per litre wednesday...

BTW we're still importing Russian oil last I heard....

I had a half tank in the car, but we were out anyway, so I decided to fill up at the local Sam's Club, where I always buy gas.

It was crazy. So many people were trying to fill up that it looked like a half hour wait.

Decided I will try again another day, or buy somewhere else. We do not use much gas anyway, being retired and limiting our travels due to virus concerns...

While exporting US oils.

This was so the govt. could "cash in" on the sale.... it also weakened our country from the point of view of being prepared during these war-torn times.

 

[GreensvilleJay]

hmm.. wonder if I can use the unused gas ration coupons I have from WWII next week ???

 

[Magicman]

I filled up my "off road" jugs this morning. 12 gallons was $50. Yikes !!!

I can actually handle the high fuel prices for the amounts I use. However, the food prices are out of control.

Check for a local fuel supplier that delivers home heating oil and has pumps. They often have dyed diesel. Another source is some farm supply outlets that sell fuel like Co-op.

That said, the price difference seems to be getting slimmer and slimmer.

If this keeps going, I think I may have to get a flock of sheep to keep the grass down, cause I wont be able to afford fuel for the tractor

Current propane was $2.55 a couple of weeks ago. Glad I bought a contract in the Fall.

Knowing how you feel about sheep that would be tough!

Thank you I will do that.

If you bought fuel on Wednesday you saved .20 a liter in NS. Two days in a row over .10 cent jumps of course I used the last of my diesel on Wednesday and planned a town run next monday.

N.S. invoking interrupter clause after just raising gas prices by 10 cents two days in a row
